Warm the Silver Size that is newly ground and mingled well with weak Size, as you did the Gold Size, do it once or twice, and let it dry, and try the Leaf Silver, if it will Burnish on it, it is prepared for the Work, but if it will not make an alte∣ration in the Size, and for the
rest, lay on the Leaf-Silver, and do as you did by the Gold, and it will answer.
Note, as farther Rules, and ever observe them.
1. Let your Parchment Size be somewhat strong, keep it not long, least it spoils.
2. Grind no more Silver or Gold Size than just you have present occasion for.
3. Ever keep your Work clean from Dust, after it is Sized and Gilded, or else in the Burnishing it will be full of scratches.
4. Do not Whiten or Burnish Gold Size in hard Frosty Wea∣ther, for then the Whiten will be apt to peel off, and the Gold flaw.
