A few months ago there was a posting for candy
glazing.
I am very intersted in this technique. If any one has
any information about this I would greatly appreciate
it. I believe it involves the mixing of sugar with
the glaze.


Thanks again, Debra

I believe this refers to a post I made involving overglaze or stain/oxide
painting on raw glaze. If you thin Karo (corn) syrup with water and slightly
dampen the glaze after it has dried on the bisque ware using a spray bottle
and then allow it to dry again it will have a hard "candy" coating that is
easier to paint on.
