I have never used it, but my understanding is Spray A or other overglazes will stick badly if in contact with the shelf wash or any fiber paper.

They are wet and will sink in.

Spray A and similar products do stick to the shelf if applied to the bottom of a piece. They need to be applied only to the air side.

I don't know what happens if after first firing Spray A side up a piece is flipped and refired with the sprayed side down. I'm not sure why you'd want to to do this anyway.
