Most china paints mature at cone 018 to 016. This, as you know, is hotter than we fire glass; no more than 022 unless you want it to slump.. There are paints used for glass, which have more flux in them. You can also take powdered flux and add it to the paint. (Incidentally I painted china and glass lampshades for 23 yrs before finding Lampwork.)
