Re: Bubble Repair?

I just fired 2 blanks, one 14" and the other 16". I ended up with many bubbles in the center of each, which had shards and stringer design. Clear cap on top of shard area and a bubble squeeze in the fireing. I drilled out the bubbles and filled them with fine clear frit. After a re-fire, t...
