Can I re-fire an uprising and fix it???

Post by Lonman »

I fired a single layer of BE black an dgot an uprising in the middle of it. It didn't get very thin in the middle of the uprising, so if I re-fire it will it go down? I know that they are caused by firing too fast, but I've used this program before with no problem. Please HELP!

Lonman, I had this happen. I was able to get it to flatten out by re-firing, but it left a mark which was pretty obvious and not very attractive. I covered it up by sandblasting a design to obscure it, so you might try that if you don't like the looks of your piece after re-firing.
