Tipsfor on-glaze painting: 
Cadmium reds and yellow: These warm colours need to be applied more thickly and fired at a slightly lower temperature, to 790C (maximum), with little or no soak. This method is most relevant to P4288 Golden yellow. 

Transparent colours: 
Any on-glaze or glass paint can be made transparent by the addition of clear flux. 
Products available from Potterycrafts are: 
R5925 - Mixingflux for low sol colours 
R5926 - Mixing flux for lowsol colours, suitable for use with cadmium colours 
R5625 - Mixing flux for leadless colours 
R5930 - Mixing flux for glass colours (high temperature) 
R5948 - Mixing flux for glass colours (medium temperature) 
These fluxes canalso be used as a protective layer over on-glaze decorationto give extra durability. 

Outlines: 
Outlines for designs can be traced or drawn freehand using a soft pencil or fine marker pen. For a more permanent result, a pale brown or grey on-glaze colour canbe used with a fine brush or pen. This can then be fired to give an outline which will not be lost after the first firing. 
Outlines are best done on ware that has been degreasedwith turpentine and dried.
