Pink Cadillac
Opaque candy-pink rod with a slightly higher COE; work slowly in a soft enveloping flame to release air bubbles. Sandwich between clear layers rather than tooling over clear.
Outcomes
-
opaque candy pinkWork slowly in a soft, enveloping flame — not boily. Allow larger air bubbles to escape as you work. Performs better sandwiched between layers of clear than sculpted/tooled over clear.
-
lighter candy pink when encasedEncasing lightens the pink tone; sandwich between clear layers rather than tooling over clear for best results.
Working notes
Preheat / heat slowly
- Slightly higher COE than standard boro — test compatibility before use.
