missholly Posted May 18, 2011 Report Share Posted May 18, 2011 how would you use paper resist decoration for an item that is to be dipped in glaze? would wet paper designs stay put on a bisqued item if its dipped? or should this only be done on greenware with underglazes?

clay lover Posted May 18, 2011 Report Share Posted May 18, 2011 I do it with slip on leather hard greenware. works great. Brushed on underglazes should work well also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcia Selsor Posted May 18, 2011 Report Share Posted May 18, 2011 I always spray my paper resist slip decoration. Never thought about dipping. Sounds challenging. Marcia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
missholly Posted May 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2011 i was hoping to do it without underglazes. i guess i could probably put the resists on greenware, dip and once fire? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Campbell Posted May 18, 2011 Report Share Posted May 18, 2011 I wonder ... if you soaked the paper pieces in a thin glue/water mix would they stick better? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheilac Posted May 20, 2011 Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 I've used the sticky back shelf lining - stays in place and works great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marcia Marcia, I have wondered about spraying slip. Do you just thin the slip untill it's ??? thin and spray like glaze? Will it run off verticle pieces? I love doing slip and spraying might give a smoother coat of the color. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seasoned Warrior Posted May 20, 2011 Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 Like Marcia I prefer to spray because, for me, I find it gives a much more even coating. I use a Paasche 64 spray gun at 60psig .The Paasche is a siphon type gun and accepts a wide range of viscosity. You may have to play with your air pressure to get the desired spray density.

centered Posted May 22, 2011 Report Share Posted May 22, 2011 Marcia, Doesn't the sprayer pressure blow the paper stencil off the piece? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terraforma Posted May 22, 2011 Report Share Posted May 22, 2011 I love using plain old hardware store wide masking tape for paper resist - sticks like crazy but is also easy to peel off. I apply strips of it to a piece, and then carefully used a sharp x-acto knife to cut away the design. It's especially good for resist on bisqueware, and seems to survive both dipping and spraying without coming off, curling up at the edges, or getting cruddy like some self-stick paper labels I've tried.

I spray a thin coat of underglaze stain with an air brush Marcia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wet the paper stencil so it sticks and work fast to spray..otherwise yes it will blow it off. Marcia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
