Fibre paper is by far the easiest to use. Simply place a piece under all of your glass before fusing. For smoother results without any “brick lines” (but more expensive), place a piece of 3mm paper under some thinfire. Re-using fibre paper? This is possible as well, just gently sprinkle some separatore powder on your fibre paper. Make sure you remove your glass carefully after firing and replace any gaps in the powder. Make sure you clean up carefully wearing a mask as the dust can cause irritation Separatore comes as a powder which is mixed with water and painted onto a clean and dry kiln shelf. 1. Mix water to a small amount of “Separatore” until it is the consistancy of skimmed milk (very thin) 2. Using a haik brush, swipe twice horizontally and twice vertically 3. Job done... Simples For subsequent firings, prepare the kiln shelf by one swipe each way. Don’t forget to add water to the mixture to thin it. After a while you will need to clean the kiln shelf. Do this by simply using a scrubbing brush under running water to remove the separatore. Allow the kiln shelf to dry naturally
