Nice to hear from you Steve, I was wondering where you got to, hope
everything is well and you had a nice christmas.
About your resist mixture. Is "light machine oil" sewing machine oil?
Also, how quickly does your mixture dry on bisque?

is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable
to the American public."

I had a 2 month plus holiday from the list at the end of last year, but
I had to get back to it again; missed the family!
The oils are one and the same. I was just remembering how widely the
List is read and covering (so I thought) the options.
On a cool surface it sets more slowly than straight wax, but it doesn't
set completely. This is a decorator's recipe really, so it flows well
when brushed on. For just wax-footing I would reduce the oil a bit, but
not too much; the lower temperature melting is a big safety factor.
Take care

Why not indeed, so long as it's thin.
