There's a student at the Center where I teach who has seen a piece on which
acrylic paints and paste shoe polish were applied and fired to bisque temp.
She would like to use silver, gold and red paints and the shoe polish. Has
anyone ever tried this? Any problem with fumes, affecting other pots, or
anything else?

TO bisque. if you fire these mediums they will burn away

I never tried paste shoe polish, but I tried Shinola brand liquid brown
polish . It produced a stain much like red iron oxide.
I did a test tile of white acrylic wall paint and it came out cream colored
and seemed firmly adhered. Both bisque & high fired to about cone 7-8 as
near as I can recall. I meant to pursue it's use as a slip- thanks for the
reminder. I tried a few other colors of paint, and the colors burned out.

Ruth -
I expect that all of those materials were applied AFTER the last firing.
Most of them would burn off entirely in any kind of firing. The student
must have read the identifying information incorrectly.

Ruth, is your student absolutely positive that the paint and shoe
polish was applied first and then biscuit-fired? I have seen plenty of
work where one or the other was applied to a biscuit form after
firing, but never before.

Hello Ruth.
In an old book they offered to use as a kiln wash aluminum paint. Oil
base. One thing for sure, acrylic or oil based I would turn the kiln on
and run away, at least until the binders will LOI!
From my experience aluminum paint in marker, might survive. I do not
remember in what temperature it has been, but once I have fired a piece
, or tile and wrote on it with such a marker, knowing it would vanish
and it did not.
When I add sometimes food color to glazes, I have found that blue, has
survived 1000C as ox. or and raku.
And for you Ruth as you had sent long time ago a ^10 purple glaze here
is my ^6 glaze that was developed out of yours

and the splendid work of Peter Hayes is a case in point.
I think he also leaves his raku sculptures under water for a while, too - or
is that apocryphal?
