How do I get a deeper colour of overglaze?

Wise use of your metallics and lustres.

Never dip your brush diretly into a container of metallic or lustre to begin application. Always pour a small amount of colour into an alcohol cleaned container and load brushes from this. These materials are expensive and you may have a contaminated brush and ruin an entire supply rather than just a bit in a dish.
