Noritake stain instead of shade base?

[danalab]

We have been using Noritake shade base for our zirconia but when we reordered, it was on back-order. We were advised that we could use external stain instead of shade base. Anyone tried this? Does it work out effectively?

You could use zirliner as well. I would do a wash bake before staining .

yep, used it many times without any issues... have added stain to zirliner as well
