Ceramics - repainting ceramics


Expert: Leisha Hiester - 4/9/2009

Question
I have a piece that was made in the 70's that has yellow stains on it.  I want to repaint it but need to know what type of paint to use.  I have no access to a kiln.  I repainted another piece some years ago which had the same stains but I don't remember the type of paint I used.  It came out really good.  So could you recommend a paint and also tell me what that yellow staining is.

Answer
Donna,

Hmmmm, do you have a picture of the piece showing the stain? Is it on the inside or outside?

There's likely a ceramics shop or studio near you. What city are you in? Most either have a kiln or know someone who does.

Let me know...Leisha
