>     Pickle, it might etch the enamel a bit. 

    Especially lead based enamels, and special pigments like red, pink,
    orange. The 'pin holes' are often difficult (and frustrating) to fill
    you often need to bur it out with a diamond point. 

    Can you tell I've had some experience with this recently (lol).
