Enamels [was Lisa Hawthorne ]

Hi Jeffery, I get most my enamels from Allcraft out of New York.
They in turn get them from europe. I’ve been really pleased with
their transparents, although the mauve I got from them was too
fine and I ended up washing away about 80 percent of it, bummer!
I do tend to wash all my transparents, it’s well worth the
effort. Good Luck, Lisa

Lisa, How do these enamels compare with the Thompson enamels?
Thanx

Thanks Lisa, I’ll try Allcraft, but in truth, I like to stay
away from pre-ground enamels. I find I get far better results if
I crush my own. I wash all my enamels before firing, even the
opaques. Thanks again, Jeffrey
