Nita,
I fused the clear and black together first, then applied mica's. Capping micas can be kind of tricky, if ther kiln is to hot they sink and disapear, to cool and they can create air bubbles in you cap. So I say why risk it, put them on top and tell your buyer not to eat off of it. Some things are ment for decorative use only.
I hope that answers your question.

Not that I condone or recommend eating off a piece of artwork, but why wouldn't you eat off it? The micas are inert and very rugged.Michael McNerney wrote:Nita,
