Soo what happened? Any ideas? Never had this happen before.


Nate.

They will turn orange again after a while. You can use a white base coat to prevent it.

Some colors will turn darker when the lead is warm from bakin but will return to the original brightness when completely cool. As stated above, a white basecoat should help.

Yeah, no I get the whole hot lead the color will look different. This is after they have cooled. Minnow head isn’t baked while the pony is. And it’s the same paint. I mean I highly doubt the sand bass will care. lol.
