Tutorial 4: Black and White Enamels to Create a Cat Silhouette Enamel: Soft White 100 (O) and Black 101 (O) from Milton Bridge in the UK and 772 Liquid Enamel from Thompson Enamels in the USA (unleaded) Metal: Copper that is 3x4 inches and 1.2mm thick Firings: 4 Kiln Temp: 800˚ Celsius (approx. 1450˚ Fahrenheit) Firing Times: 1.30 mins for initial firings up to 2 mins for the last firing.

Both the black and white enamels are very opaque so even the smallest amount will show up (white on black or vice versa). So in this case I did a final layer of black using 80 mesh sifters of various sizes in order to avoid sifting any onto the white stencilled area of the cat.
