Title: 'Sugar Coated'
Post by: Pixiedebs on October 02, 2008, 11:08:40 PM
Hi all,

I'm a newby and wondered if anyone could tell me what it is that makes some of the beads I have seen 'sugar coated'?  Is it mica powder or fine frit or something else?

Thanks

Hiya
Its fine frit - R100 Lead Crystal size K00 is the most popular but any K0 or K00 clear frit works - and I am selling it by the bucket load at the moment!

Thanks for your reply.  Do you have a site?  I think I'm going to be buying some too  :).
