Re: Using Old Glaze

I just add water and stir really well. If it doesn't work, don't use it. It's
really easy to get it too watery. I had some glazes that froze and some worked
and some didn't. Depends on the chemical balance etc. Make sure you stir it up
really well when it gets wet again, and give it a test run. I can't imagine what
the anti-freeze would do... Sid
