GC lustre requires vacuum

take an instrument , not a brush, and apply a small amount to the area.
entry 757f
high temp 1382f no hold
108f/min

good luck without vacuum should be ok though

next Friday so if I totally mess up a buddy can fix it lol.
Why not send it back to the slacker that left an open contact on it and have them do it?
I wouldn't trust that old oven. Could be the start to your marble collection. lol

Why the disapproval @rkm rdt? I would think that 1mm would be a difficult add with Lustre Paste and easy with e.max add on material, but I'm not familiar with the LP.

I can make a veneer with just the lustre paste.
It's a nano ceramic material.
The problem he has is with his furnace, not his material. He has no vacuum.
Having said that 1mm should be ok as long as he dries it slowly before entry.
I fire GC on my emax glaze program and emax glaze on my gc program. It's the same.

Here's another secret:Listen
add emax to your gc and see what happens.

He wanted someone to walk him through it and then runs away when he gets a solution.
What's the frigging point ?
