I use both alot and loooove BIG TIME the Opalino 536 Carnelian. I use the 30/70 rule and don't have any problems. 70% of the bead needs to be of one type and 30% (stinger work, dots etc.) can be the other. So base bead of Carnelian with dots of coral give you a kick butt bead of a lovely pink and the coral turns orange.
Both the Opalinos and Alabastros love dots of Pastel Moretti. Colors that normally bleed won't.
Play with it its cool.
