Default Thin mandrels

I want to make beads with very small holes. I have tried using regular wire, but can't remove the beads from the mandrels even though I use the same bead release. Do the 1/16" regular mandrels work well for this or will I have the same problem? The surface of the wire seems to be coated with something that won't release well. Or is it because there is so little rigidity to the thin wire?
