    I'm not an enamelist. I purchased a used kiln before the holidays
    and am gearing up to give it a go. After reading as much as I could
    get my hands on it's obvious that good enameling is a challenge. 

    I can understand why so many enamelist are upset by the term
    "enamels" when referring to epoxy because they clearly are not
    enamels. Yes, they mimic enamels in that they add color to a piece.
    But they are not enamels. They are epoxy resins. 

    In response to the comment made by the goldsmith "my customers don't
    know the difference anyway" well here is the perfect opportunity to
    educate your consumer! I work quite a bit with expoxy resin and find
    customers are amazed that I can take such a mundane substance such as
    "glue" and turn it into something so beautiful. 

Just my two cents...
