Dear Joan Ashworth,

I was taught how to make Resin lustres by Greg Daly. Part of the =
information I originally sent to Aliakbar contained his recipe, which =
comes by the way from Cullen Parmellee if I recall the event correctly.

Ferric (Iron3) chloride with Rosin gives a superb orange with a metallic =
sheen on bathroom tiles which are a good, ready made,test tile for the =
low temperature decorating materials.

But the Chemistry of resinates is still a big mysterious black hole.

Best regards,

Dear Ivor,
Can you also send the information to me? Textbook information about this
subject is very limited. Some recipes refer to pine resin, other to gum
arabic, and then I found one that referred to ROSIN. Is rosin just another
term for resin, or what is it?
I would appreciately your help greatly.
Regards,
Cobus Potgieter.
