General Application Instructions:
(Note: Object to receive decal must be completely clean and free of any oil or dust.) Immerse decal in lukewarm water for 20-30 seconds. Slide decal from the backing paper and position on glazed ware. (If decal doesn't slide off easily place it face up on a paper towel for a minute.) Be sure decal is applied face-up; otherwise it will burn completely off. Remove moisture with a soft, damp cloth or decal squeegee. Be sure wrinkles and bubbles are completely removed. Do not rub or press after decal has dried. Allow to dry 24 hours before firing.
- Caution: Do not apply on surfaces that come in contract with food or drink.
- Keep decals away from small children unless properly supervised.
- Lead and Cadmium may be present in some colors.
The firing ranges given below should only be taken as a general guide due to differences which may occur in individual kilns. It is strongly suggested that you do a test-firing before actually proceeding with your project.

Imported China Cone 017-016
|
Ceramic Ware Cone 018-017
|
Red Shades Cone 018
|
|
A higher temperature is needed to allow a decal to adhere to the hard surface of imported china.
|
A lower firing temperature is sufficient for decals on this ware due to its soft glaze.
|
Most shades of red should not be fired hotter than cone 018 regardless of ware. Overfired red will usually turn grey.

Pink Shades Cone 017 or hotter
|
Cloisonne Style With Gold Accents Cone 018
|
Liquid Bright Gold Palladium Platinum Cone 018-017
|
|

|
Designed to be fired to cone 018 regardless of ware.
