Hot pink is difficult to get in any manufactured glass. I would say rubino is comparable to the davardi cranberry. Bullseye has a pretty hot pink, but a different COE. I've seen satake in a bright...

I liked the sop white too. There's nothing semi opaque about it once it is melted, which is exactly what I want anyway. I almost like it better than moretti, and NO shocking problems whatsoever....

I ran out of Effetre white, and found a rod of SOP White....love the way it melts! Another melting favorite is Saffron Yellow. No one makes a color like that AND it's not shocky. Same for the gray.
