Instructions
- Begin with properly fired shelf cone 04 bisque. Moisten a clean sponge and wipe bisque to remove any dust.
- Using the CB-604 Soft Fan Brush, apply 3 coats of SW-119 Cinnabar to the back sides and the front of the platter. Do not glaze the bottom or the foot.
- Using the carbon paper and a pencil, transfer the pattern onto the platter. Darken the lines with a pencil if necessary.
- Prime the CB-110 Mini Liner by dipping it in AC-525 Brush Cleaner and wiping off the excess with a paper towel. Use it to apply one coat of AC-302 Wax Resist to the lines from the pattern and let dry. Clean your brush immediately after use with additional brush cleaner.
- Using the CB-106 Script Liner, apply one heavy coat of SW-167 to leaves #1, 7, 9 and 10 according to the pattern. Apply one heavy coat of SW-168 Coral Sands to leaves #4, 5, 6 and 11. Apply one heavy coat of SW-169 Frosted Lemon to leaves #2, 3 and 8.
- Using the CB-106 Script Liner, apply two coats of SW-166 Norse Blue to the areas around the leaves, up to but not including the rim.
- Do not stilt or hang over the edge of the kiln shelf.
- Fire to cone 5/6.
