M black vs Vet black

[karrina]

Which do you guys like better and why- does one bleed more than other? I've found Vet. black to pit more-

thanks for the input

I sold off all my Moretti Black and bought and use only CiM "Hades"...it's the most wonderful BLACK ever...IMHO! I've also heard that CiM "Tuxedo" is a terrific, dense black but haven't tried it yet.

Sorry about not directly answering your question - and even complicating it by adding yet another possibility to the mix - but just wanted to give my perspective.

Grrr, I was going to ask about pitting too.
I am *SO FRUSTRATED* with it.

If I'm making a raku'd black bead, I have to get the raku HOT.... and when I do the black just can't take it.

It looks awful, my poor beads look scarred.
