The color coating is opened with a top, polymerized and removed the sticky layer.
• Then all the marigolds, with the exception of those on which the “marmalade design” will be placed, are covered with a protective topcoat. On the other plates, glitter, powder or melange sand are applied. Everything is dried and fixed with a finishing agent.
