Hello Friend,
ReplyDeleteI did my first test of Reusche 1388 yesterday. I'm very pleased with the results. One question I have: window glass vs ¼ plate. Plate seems a bit weaker. Is the thickness of glass effecting final results? All sampleas were fired together in electric kiln @ 1100F. Any comments welcome. https://www.facebook.com/JurekGlassPainting/photos/a.1539288476390439.1073741829.1536755799977040/1567542970231656/?type=3&theater
By the way, airbrush used for my test is Iwata Eclipse with 0.3 nozzle.
ReplyDeleteI had no problem spraying SS. I use few drops of Prolylene Glycol is a surfactant. I'm quite experienced with Iwata airbrushes, strongly recommend.
