Liquid latex.
What is Liquid Latex? Do you buy it from an art supply store, a hardware store or
the ceramic supply store?
Can you paint it on bisque ware and then peel it off like contact paper? Can you
paint it on an unfired glazed surface and then peel it off if you get some where
you didn't want it? Thanks.

I purchase liquid latex at local art supply houses. It paints on easily and
peels off just as easily. I use it when I want fine control over the area I
want left uncovered. I have not tried to cut a shape after painting it on
to see if it will peel easily, leaving the decoration in tact.
Down side - if you leave liquid latex on pot when you fire, it burns off ok
and doesn't seem to cause any ill effects in the final firing - but, boy,
does it stink when it burns off. Probably really noxious stuff, so I avoid
putting it in the kiln if t all possible.

Liquid Latex is great stuff but it has a few rules.. you need murphys
oil soap for your brush or you wont have a brush left after your done and you
should thin out the latex with water first... fool around with how much as
you may be able to get away with really thin depending on what your doing its
also easier to use the thinner it is. ps dip your brush in murphys oil
soap before you begin then go for it ....
