[QUOTE="JohnWilson, post: 99302, member: 213"] Not sure there is a gold rule on thickness, I am just extremely impressed at how the acid based stains penetrate the Zircon. What I find that makes the units pop is HOW you apply the stains and how clean the canvas is. I have two different paint brushes that I use to vary concentration of stain when I apply it to the crown. This seems to diffuse the light and fool the eye to give the illusion of depth. Recently I have been experimenting when I sinter, I am very conscious to putting the thick units around the edge of the plate and the thin units in the center. I also face the facial aspect of the crown towards the center of the chamber. I have absolutely no clue if this is doing anything but to my eye it appears that I am getting a more consistent trans line to the incisals. As I surpass a 1000 units I have learned much and still am tweaking what we do here with the same products. It now becomes a game to try and match the guide with Zero external stain, while I love Wielands products it is the only product I have used. I have tried samples of others but it all comes back to the comparison of what I am comfortable with. I do the grass is always greener thinking when I read about products but I can honestly say my clients and I have been very satisfied with the results of Zenostar. [/QUOTE]
