A WEEK AGO I RECEIVED A REQUEST FOR A COUPLE SPLASH PLATES IN GOLD. I'VE NEVER WORKED IN GOLD BEFORE, BUT I HAPPILY ACCEPTED THE CHALLENGE. I HAD TO GET SOME NEW GLAZE OF COURSE. I ENDED UP WITH A MAGIC METALLIC GOLD. IT'S A LITTLE DIFFERENT PROCESS THAN WHAT I'M USED TO. ONCE THE PLATE WAS BISQUE FIRED I THEN PUT A CLEAR COAT OF GLAZE ON AND FIRED FOR A SECOND TIME. NEXT THE GOLD GLAZE WAS PAINTED ON AND NOW I'M WAITING FOR THE MAGIC METALLIC MATTE SEALER TO ARRIVE SO I CAN FINISH THE LAST STEP. SO FAR I'M HAPPY WITH THE WAY THEY LOOK. I JUST HOPE THE MATTE CLEAR DOESN'T TAKE AWAY FROM THE BRILLIANCE OF THE GOLD TOO MUCH...
