I am applying red over middle black in preparation for gold. Things to note. This video is about 10 minutes, I continued for about 50 more minutes after thinning and widening the line to the edges. I think let it dry for about 30 minutes in the muro. The first thing I did in preparation for widening and thinning is to run a line of lacquer down the middle of the seam.
