Hi All

Does anyone have issues with horizontal lines in their emax pressing? If so, do you know what causes it or how to stop it?

Depending on your spring, you may see (for lack of better term) 'miss aligned crystals'. It is mostly visible where the sprue attaches to the wax pattern and looks like a low value spot.


Although that is very local and doesn't spread horizontally.

Just get some of Jensens InSync fluorescent glaze paste and a bottle of their glaze liquid. You will like it.

You got the glaze paste that is used when crystalizing and glazing at the same time. If you press, this is one is no good...

Ask for Ivocolor Glaze Powder/Paste FLUO. I prefer powder over paste since it glazes cleaner than paste, which leaves a whitish sheen when applied in excess.
