Default Etch resistant glasses?

File this under "you should have written down the recipe".
I recently made a bead that looked a little bland. I decided it wouldnt hurt to etch it. Once etched, the transparent blue part of the bead looked characteristically like sea glass but the clear or lighter transparent was resistant to the etch and looked cool. I'd like to recreate it but I forgot how I did it. I thought it might be a good idea to come up with a list of etch resistant glass. Any ideas? tips?

I think Cirrus is resistant. Silver glass tends to resist more often than not.
