Goodmorning. I am just finishing the Banoffee course of Chef Ovando. He paints with neutral glaze. Do you need to add any water to the neutral glaze or do you just need to heat the neutral glaze and to which temperature do you need to heat it to use in the spraygun? As always your help and explanation is greatly appreciated. I am only a beginner so thank you for all your time and help. Very best regards from a very hot Venice, Italy. Steve
To spray with neutral mirror glaze using a spray gun, you generally don’t need to add water, but you do need to heat it to achieve the right consistency for spraying. Here are the basic steps:
1. Heating: Heat the neutral mirror glaze to a temperature between 35°C and 40°C. This will make it liquid enough to pass through the spray gun without issues.
2. Consistency Check: If the neutral mirror glaze still seems too thick after heating, you might consider adding a small amount of water or glucose syrup to adjust the viscosity. However, this is not always necessary and depends on the specific brand of neutral mirror glaze you are using.
3. Using the Spray Gun: Once the neutral mirror glaze is at the correct temperature and consistency, load it into the spray gun and ensure the nozzle is clean to avoid clogs.
Make sure to follow the instructions from the specific neutral mirror glaze manufacturer you are using, as some brands may have particular recommendations for heating and application.
