<p>[QUOTE="Jet, post: 1622760, member: 13952"]Yes, I started out learning to make bisque reproductions, then moved on to repairing till the chemicals used in the products for restoration were too much for me to continue using them. A lot of it was actually auto body repair products. It is tough to detect really good repairs. With composition you really need to get used to what the finish should look like to tell. Bisque Is much easier. You need to use a flashlight inside the piece to illuminate it. An ultra violet light or mini flashlight will show differences in paint, or cracks. Hope it helps! I'll be around though, lol, to see if I can help![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
