Select your colours and squeeze some of each paint colour onto your palette. A small amount goes a long way so don't forget to add water. Don’t forget light colours will not show through dark so start light if you are painting an undercoat. One coat will give you a light, transparent colour. Three coats will result in a bolder, more opaque coverage. No need for more than three coats. Allow paint to dry between each application. Refer to the colour charts to see how the colours look after glazing and firing.
