    Possibly using fine silver foil would work for you.  You need to
    pierce the foil surface with a brass brush, tapping it all over the
    shape, to eliminate the bubbles.  Silver leaf is probably too thin
    and could simply burn up in the kiln but it is cheaper and can
    usually be bought one sheet at a time, should you want to try it.
    Thompson Enamel is one source.

    P.S.  I didn't see a followup to the query about using hydrochloric
    acid.  Is anyone going to discuss using PnP and ferric chloride?
    With a quantity of ammonia hanging around the corner for safety?
