Cheryl If you have a cabinet and good quality gun, see what the manufacturer of the gun reccomends for an air compressor. CFM (Cubic Feet of air per Minute) is the most critical factor. You need less CFM if you have a pressure blaster. There are small units that will do an excellent job but cheap ge...

What is a good mesh size for sifting Bullseye fine powdered frits. Has anyone used the sifting cloth that Schlaifers carries.
Is the stainless screen any better? Secrets of an even dense to light color blend?

Thanks Bert, The idea of loading the screen is elegant. I have screened on enough glass to have the other info, but have always struggled with not getting too much ink and the consequent smearing. I read the other thread too. Good info. Interesting that the topic came up twice independently at the s...

Thanks everyone for the feedback. I 'm having a 200 mesh screen made.
I couldn't get through to Reusche so that helped, along with the ratios. I remember needing a lot of paint but that really helps.

I frequently wash my blender with soap and warm water. I take it no one else has encountered this so perhaps ambient dust, but it seems to happen after several smooth dust free blending strokes, then dust seems to appear.

I have to tell you I feel laughed at here. Ha Ha.

What is a good mesh size for evenly sifting bullseye powder frits?
Has anyone used non traditional sifters with good results?

One of my greatest frustrations in painting glass is the appearance of dust and hairs which seems to occur most often when using a blender. I remember in a physics class where the teacher rubbed a glass rod with some fur to give it a large static charge. Could this be happening with the badgerhairs ...
