Hi All,

I know this is a bit of an ask, but does anyone have an 'old faithful' firing cycle to get bullseye red or garnet red to strike whilst going for a full fuse.
Its a one shot firing attempt and the red really needs to strike. I used to know one, but ive completely misplaced it.

Thanks in advance :D

I've never adjusted my firing cycles to accomodate for striking colours.  In fact, I'd never even thought about it, I just assumed they were designed to strike at fusing temperatures anyway (otherwise, it seems a bit pointless).

I've never had a glass *not* strike.

I use this colour a lot and have never had a problem using the standard bullseye full fuse cycle.
Its a lovely rich colour and a favourite of mine! The only problems I have had were with opaque red which can sometimes be a bit streaky, pretty but streaky.
