DECALS ARE FIRED AT HIGH TEMPERATURES FROM 500º - 1,350º C ( 1,020 - 2,462º F), BUT
ORGANIC COLOR CHANGING INKS CANNOT BE USABLE AT SUCH HIGH TEMPERATURES. THE COLOR CHANGING
INK IS DEVELOPED TO BE APPLIED AND GLAZED AT A TEMPERATURE OF 100º - 150º C (212º -
302º F).

5. HOW TO USE
CUT THE DECAL FROM THE
SHEET, AND PLACE IT IN WARM WATER FOR ABOUT 2 TO 3 MINUTES OR UNTIL THE DECAL STARTS TO
SLIDE OFF THE PAPER. THE WATER MUST BE CHANGED FREQUENTLY TO AVOID GLUE RESIDUE TO RUIN
THE DECALS.
TAKE EXCESS WATER AND AIR
BUBBLES WITH A RUBBER SQUEEGEE.
DRY AT ROOM TEMPERATURE FOR
ABOUT 20 TO 30 MINUTES.
6. FIRING
DEPENDING ON THE FIRING
CONDITIONS, THE QUALITY OF THE DECAL MAY VARY. OIL OR OXYGEN IS NOT IMPORTANT.
THE THICKNESS OF THE
ARTICLES TO FIRE PLUS THE QUANTITY OF THEM PLACED IN THE KILN WILL DECIDE THE FIRING CYCLE
(20 - 30 MINUTES AT 150º C )
302º F.
IN A LEAR (TUNNEL KILN),
BEGINNING TEMPERATURE SHOULD NOT BE OVER 150ºC (302º F). AT PEAK TEMPERATURE (150º C)
THE ARTICLES SHOULD BE LEFT IN THE KILN FOR ABOUT 20 - 30 MINUTES, BUT IN A REGULAR
SHUTTLE KILN, JUST KEEP GOODS ABOUT 20 - 30 MINUTES AT 150º C (302º F) AND THEN YOU CAN
REMOVE THEM.
AFTER FIRING, ELIMINATE THE
COVER COAT, AND CLEAN THE GOODS.
