They have clear frit. Can work with Moretti (in moderation)

On black, I like to used Val Cox frit's ''Silver Lake'' or any opaque frit.

Hope this help.

Thompson now has clear enamel. This is great for coating metallics that you don't want to rub off..Paula

Try http://fusedglasssource.com/frit.html. Their prices are good and shipping is based on the actual cost, so I like them. You probably want the fine or medium. The finest (powder) is what it sounds like: as fine as baby powder.

I just sent you a PM over on WC, because I didn't want to post that link in the partner forum there.
