The traditional Painted-enamel techniques are considered close to painting on porcelain, and they were originally developed in Limoges, France, about the year 1470. Enamel techniques progressed through the ages, modeled by inspiration and new technologies. The painting process
included fire-resistant enamel paints on a charm which are burnt several times depending on the final results expected making the colors of paints vary.
In plain English, an enamel painting is a vitreous paint or decorative coating on metals such as stainless steel, silver or gold, glass, or ceramic that dries to an especially hard, glossy shine, and with a transparency of color.
Some ordinary latex, oil-modified polyesters, and oil-based paints have the same properties as true, fired vitreous enamel just by adding varnish on them, but will lose quality and shine through the passing of time. The use of these fake enamel techniques was introduced in the early
1930's to reduce costs and processing time.
Oil in enamel charms is required to enhance or stop cross-linking of the paint to achieve sufficient flexibility of the paint film during the manufacturing process, then after the enamel basis will keeps its colorful cleanliness, hardening the surface. |
