  3. Stilt and fire to cone 06. Use a Coffee Filter to remove the Tumbler from the kiln to prevent getting any fingerprints on them. 
  4. Place the Tumbler on a Banding Wheel and center it. 
  5. Using OB-901 Mother of Pearl ¼” Shader, apply OG803 Mother of Pearl in a horizontal pattern around the Tumbler. Clean brush with OA901 Essence that is reserved for the OG803 Mother of Pearl.
