[QUOTE="sndmn2, post: 316255, member: 1639"] It is a little tricky for sure. It does not pool up like a gold or say a 50% pfm metal. It will slump. You will have to learn to trust the slump like a Rexiliium 3 slump. The torch has to be blazing and loud. Thats the best way I can explain it. You'll have to come up with a technique. For me its after it slumps, count to about 45 or so and let it rip. Pretty scientific I know . Preheat the crucible with the ring. . Use an eight gauge sprue on singles . I go direct, not on a runner bar. The metal sets fast. As far as applying porcelain. I was getting some blow outs. After talking to Argen rep he said to try Ceram Bond by Bredent as a first opaque bake . So far that seems to be working for me. But I still do mostly SLM. When finishing I hit it first with a carbide and then a stone. [/QUOTE]
