Default What bead release for boro??

Hi

I have just started playing with boro and the bead release keeps breaking.

I use Bucket O Mud with soft glass and love it - it is the best bead release I've ever used . However, when I use a spacer bead as a loop for a pendant the bead release breaks every time. (I'm no good at loops!!!)

Any recommendations?

Thanks
Jenn

Sludge Plus is all I use. I've tried everything else and I keep coming back to it.

Fusion.
Best in da world (for me anyway).
I make some pretty big honkin beads,
and it holds like glue, comes out pretty
easily.

Most everywhere carries Sludge Plus. Arrow Springs makes it, but a lot of people carry it.

Fusion rocks hard core. And you can actually flame dry it. Like dip it and wave it in the flame. Great stuff. Frantz carries it.
