Re: Duracoat tiles? can't find in UK. + Varnish question

I thought so for a minute when that came up in google earlier today, but if you scroll down, all they have under 'duracoat' is tile stands in packs of ten. . . no tiles unfortunately ;-(
so they are another 'used to have'.

Re: Duracoat tiles? can't find in UK. + Varnish question

<r>Hi all,<br/>

Re: help - why is this happening?

<t>TTP site said 4 mins 200 degrees at medium pressure. <br/>
Didn't know BMS did these coasters, I knew about Longforte doing them, but when I looked a couple of months ago they were out of stock, and they didn't supply the plastic feet. I know you can get them online, what do they call them ...

Re: help - why is this happening?

<t>I am subbing images onto glass coasters. the nice, square ones from TTP. The black in my design is coming out brown, making the whole thing look faded. My first four of this batch have come out this way and I don't want to waste any more. I have subbed several sets of coasters before now mostly ...

Re: Halogen oven temperature accuracy

<t>People who use halogen ovens to bake polymer clay, (Fimo, etc) which is a temperature critical process, say that ordinary specialist oven thermometers are not accurate.
