hi handletterers; i have been enjoying your work imensely and feel a bit amatuerish now.I used oil size on a reverse window.
can anyone tell me the receipe for size or brand ready made.Also can i risk backing up with solver uv clear that i use to edge seal painted window signs, thanks from tone

hi mike thanks for replying yes i may have used the wrong size for a reverse window job.Although i achieved a good finish i want to back up so publican can clean inside. :oops: i think ill have a practice with some gelatine size.You guys have inspired me to try harder to sell my brush work to custom...

hi can anyone tell me the best way to back up gold leaf window. i have used clear poly as size.
thanks
