Re: sgraffito
You can use either powdered frit or enamel/paint. Generally, we use powder dry and paint with a binder. I guess you could use wet powder, but not sure that's any easier or less of a mess than dry powder.raphy wrote:For any of you who do sgraffito, do you use powdered frit or paint. If you use frit do you mix it with aloe to paint it on. I was taught years and years ago but have completely forgotten. Thank you for any help.

The number of layers depends on the darkness of the powder, but in general we use about 4 grains thick.raphy wrote:Thank you, if you use the powder binded or not how many layers?
