Note: Materials needed to finish a piece are highlighted in bold print the first time they are used.
All Pieces: Begin with properly fired shelf cone 04 bisque. Moisten a clean sponge and wipe bisque to remove any dust.  When finished glazing & painting properly fire to shelf cone 06.
Canisters & Decanters: Pour SC-210 Roll-A-Coat into the canister and lid and roll around in a continuous motion until the inside is covered.  Pour the excess out and turn the piece upside down to dry.  Leave in this position until glaze has lost the shiny look. Wipe off excess glaze on the outside of piece with moist sponge. Will also need a spray bottle, plastic wrap, pencil & mylar carbon.
