Step 1 - Preparation
· Clean Glass and bail
using Alcohol or Dish Washing
Detergent. Then dry and set aside on a clean piece of
paper or cardboard.
· Clean & Prep Kiln & Mold:
· Apply Kiln Wash (Shelf Primer)
· Cut Shelf Paper to fit shelf
· Place Kiln Shelf Supports, Shelf
and Shelf Paper into Kiln
Step 2: Put Glass project together
(See
Glass Tips & Tricks section:
How to use Fusible Glass Decals)
Cut out the desired fusible tree decal or scraps of
trees decals. Place in a
small amount of clean water and using a pair of tweezers
take the decal out of the water when it starts to curl
about 20 seconds. Slide off of the paper backing
onto the clear glass and smooth out any air bubbles.
Place
clear oval, centered on top of Dichroic Oval. Let dry 10 minutes.
Note: If you apply decal to
Dichroic Glass they will sometimes move some as
the glass moves and make the design less visually crisp. If
you want crisp lines apply decal to the surface of the
Clear Glass Cap.
Step 3: Place into Kiln Using Fingers around outer edges
of the fusible glass project or better yet wear latex
gloves, pick up and place the project on the kiln shelf
paper/shelf. Leave a minimum of 1/2"
(13 mm) space between each project to ensure they do not
touch and fuse together.
