OA 901 Essence 1/2 oz. $Email for availability
Must-have solution for cleaning all of your brushes n tools used with overglazes.
Essence is the perfect accessory to working with Duncan overglazes;
|
How to use Essence
Swish overglaze brush in solvent until bristles are free of product.
Wipe on paper towel.
..............
Use a separate bottle of Essence for each overglaze product.
Mark the bottles according to which overglaze product was used.
Contamination can result if brushes and/or Essence used with one product
come in contact with brushes and/or Essence used with another. For example,
if you use Bright Gold and clean your brush in one bottle of Essence,
then clean a brush used with Mother of Pearl in that same bottle of Essence,
contamination will result and compromise all subsequent firings.
..............
Other cleaning agents may contain water or solvents,
resulting in the separation of overglaze during subsequent applications.
