    With regard to enameling on bronze, I understand that the major
    problem is the zinc content. Rio Grande has a casting grain called
    Ancient Bronze (order #706-051), that contains no zinc. I am taking
    classes now in casting and after discussion with my teacher, am
    planning to order it and see if it will work with enameling. Perhaps
    Rio Grande could shed some light on this since they now carry
    enameling products.
