Thumbs up multiple fuming wires....

MGA also sells silver and gold and wire for fuming but they have two different kinds of gold. One has 2% copper in it to give ya' a wider range of color. Try mixing different combos of two or three......good luck-

Is this the correct wire? http://www.riogrande.com/Product/24K...d/608122?Pos=1 TIA, Dianne

oh and you can fume silver or gold on any coe....but with boro you'll get a wide range of colors from silver and gold and all variations of mixing the two.

every time i've fumed soft glass (silver or gold) i don't get a variety of colors. could just be me though.
