Step 2:  Prepare Glass
- Using
the Fuser's Glue cover the surface of the Glass circle and wolf and moon.  Then sprinkle the glass frit over the cirle. Let dry for at least 10 minutes do not move, it may take 30 minutes or longer for the glue to completely dry and hold the frit in place.

Once it is dry, turn the glass circle up side down and tap on the back to get rid of any excess frit and make sure to brush it off the wolf and moon.

Step 3: Apply Dicro Slide TM Using scraps, soak it in water for 10 to 20 seconds and slide it onto the top of the moon and frit.  Press into place and remove any air bubbles on the moon.  Let dry for at least 10 minutes.

If possible, leave the kiln sit unopened until the next day so your project has had plenty of time to anneal back to room temperature.
Step 5: Adding Night Light Clip

Make sure the glass and the night light clip are clean and dry and before applying adhesive.  Place the clip on the center, back side along the bottom edge of the glass circle.  Attach the Metal Night Light Clip using the Triolyse glue. We suggest using small clips or even clothes pins to hold the clip in place while drying. Maximum strength is reached after 6 hours.  (If you are using E6000 Adhesive, maximum strength is 24 hours and it is important to clean up any excess immediately.)

(Read the Tips & Tricks for using Triolyse Glue)

Tip: If you are having trouble getting the clip to attach and you are sure the glass and clip are clean it is most likely you need to scuff up the surface of either the metal and/or the glass where you are attaching the clip to provide a surface in order for the glue to bond.
