Please log in for more thread options Not that I'm an expert, but I would also suspect that the glaze was too
thin, so that the droplets have become little corns of sand instead. Maybe
dip with the new glazes? or just spray a little thicker? Personally, I
prefer using brushes to brush my glazes on, as then I can vary the thickness
and get cool effects. Never experienced sandpapery glazes myself.
