FKW-SSP
Smooth Surface Preparation:
Fusing Kiln Wash |
|
Originally formulated for coating smooth surfaces, such as stainless steel molds; SSP has many other uses. This kiln wash will effectively coat nearly any non-porous surface, including glazed ceramic.
Brush on one thin coat (cold) and let dry. Apply a second thin coat
if desired. Some prefer spray-on application (NL-366 or NL-310). For
added durability fire to 950°F in a ventilated kiln, burning out
binding agents before continuing on to full-fuse.
After first firing brush vigorously with an old cloth to smooth the
surface. If it is being used on a slumping mold, a second thin coat
can be applied to fill in any imperfections. |
Repeat firings are dependent on the proper application. Inspection of the mold is required before each firing to identify imperfections which would expose mold to glass.
