decals causing rough surface

I just took out a batch of plates with decals on them where the surface
was rough where ever the decal medium (with or without pigment) was on
the pot. The only unusual thing in the firing was that it was to Cone
07. I've fired them to 020 and 05 without incident before. I'll fire
the next batch to the 020, but am curious to hear if others have
encountered this. The decal medium always seemed to disappear before...
Please email at address below, as I'll be switching Clayart to nomail
for most of the summer, starting soon.
