Chris -
>Instead of buying yet another chemical to add to my
ever-expanding arsenal, could I substitute frit 3134
or 3195? How would that alter other ingredients, or
the appearance of the glaze? <
"Expanding arsenals" (well put!) come with the
territory but.....If you can get your hands on a
CUSHING'S HANDBOOK, it includes a breakdown of the
ingredients in various frits. Comparing the breakdowns
will give you a rough idea of what frit might differ
the least from what your recipe calls for. Reading
the notes column at the right will also give you an
idea of how diff. frits may affect your recipe.
Ck ClayArt archives for how to get a Handbook - or
else write me back.
