Washing off Vitrea160

Hello! At my Art Store, there was no white for porcelain , so I bought the glass paint: Vitrea 160- to go over where my own glaze had come off a little in a cone5 kiln fire. It said glossy on the bottle, but went on matt- is that because I didn't bake it at325 F in my home oven? It took about twenty hours to make this thing& I really love it,

should I bake it , to get it shiny, or wash it off to get my original glaze back? If so, should I soak it and hopefully , it will peal off?

I'm hoping someone knows at Pebeo cuz, I'll use it ALL the time if it means I can fix my ceramics , when the glaze comes off , here& there. It's a problem on occasion... Looking forward to Your Response! Many Thanks !

You need to bake it for it to achieve its final appearance. The color will intensify and become glossy once baked as indicated on the manufacturer's instructions. I hope this is the solution you are looking for! :o)
