Hi there. I've been visiting for a long time, but this is my first post. I see that paradise paints come in powders and I was wondering if Klyr-fire could be used as a medium and if that would reduce some of their toxicity (the awful smell). I was also wondering if anyone uses them for items that will hold food. If I use spray 'A" over them (after the first firing) can I dispense with worrying whether they will leach into any food? I plan to be using them on an opaque background so they need to be my top layer.

Thanks for any help,

Jaye

Yes, and yes.

No and no. Spray A has lead also.

Thanks for any help,

Hi Brock - thanks for the info. (I was in your class in Tennessee this summer - still so much stuff to try). I guess I have been using superspray, not spray 'A'. Well, I guess I will give them a try.
