Enamelling A Bath

To remove the dirt and grease from a bath, make a strong lye of soda, say 2 pounds of soda to a pail of water, and well scrub it out with this. Then rub it well down with pumice-stone or glass-paper, then wipe out all the dust. To make a good job it will want three coats of enamel. After giving the first coat let it stand for a day, after it is dry, before applying the second, and let it be two days between the second and third coats, to allow it to get thoroughly dry, a very essential point.

Enamelling Upon Glass

This is a German method for enamelling glass: A mixture of dry enamel, thick pine oil, and damar lac is laid on the glass in a semi-dried state. After drying the drawing is pressed in. The enamel is then burned. In this way it is possible to reproduce the forms of figures in slight relief, the hairs of animals, the feathers of birds, and the veins of leaves.
