A reducing athmosphere can cause a greyish haze on your beads, try putting them in a bowl with toiletcleaner ( dunno wich one, but some people do this to remove the silver sheen on copper green). Otherwhise, a night in coca cola might help too.

Thanks for the idea..... now I'm wondering how a kiln can have a reducing atmosphere? should I open the peephole a bit during firing? It is an AIM kiln with one bead door.
