"MDDCL" Firing Schedule

Medalta Decal Firing

Instructions for application:
-Trim around decal.
-Place in shallow pan of warm water, let it curl up. After about 30 seconds it should begin to uncurl, loosen and slide off the paper.
-Position the decal face up and slide it off onto the fired ware surface.
-Sponge from the center until all the excess water, wringles and air bubbles have been removed.
-Let dry for 12-24 hours before firing.

Step °C °F Hold Time
1 111°C/hr to 43C  200°F/hr to 110F  30min 0:40  
2 111°C/hr to 97C  200°F/hr to 208F  45min 1:54  
3 194°C/hr to 482C  350°F/hr to 900F    3:53  
4 388°C/hr to 821C  700°F/hr to 1510F  20min 5:05  
Start temperature assumed: 25°C or 75°F
"Fahrenheit degrees" is not the same as "degrees Fahrenheit". A 100° reading on a Fahrenheit thermometer is equal to a 37° reading on a Celcius thermometer. But "100 Fahrenheit degrees of temperature change" is equivalent "55 Celsius degrees of change". That is an important distinction to understand the above temperature conversions.
