Dear Bill,
I had some small pots left over from the raku firing that wouldn't. They
glaze was pretty well fixed on the pots, but probally I could have scrubbed
them off. I painted them over with a layer of just Frit in water. They all
melted out.

So, if I use the G.B. again, I could probably add some Frit and get it tp
melt. I do not know, but I think it sounds logical.
thanks for the advice about adding Lith. Carb. You are right, that that
recipe 80/20 G.B and Neph. Sye was always called
"Ready Raku" because it was so simple and always worked!
regards from Alisa in Denmark
