Kiln Wash Application

[Stephen Richard]

You can apply kiln wash to your shelf (Barry has answered about the kiln bricks) with a haik brush (horizontal, vertical, and both diagonals – one coat each).  You can spray it on – I use a pump up garden sprayer with as fine a mist as is allowed to coat the shelf.  To get a smoother fininsh you can put hot water in your sprayer and spray over a perfectly level shelf, this will give a very smooth finish as the water evaporates.  Anything more expensive than a garden sprayer is unnecessary, in my opinion of course.
