Using Fine Silver wire

When using fine silver wire wrapped around a bead - is there a way to stop the silver from fuming on the bead causing that yellowish tinge?

don't use glass that reacts
or encase base with clear before adding silver.

Use 006 clear, or you can use clear enamel or powder sifted over your completed bead. Zephyr works great, too.
