01/11/10 - Removing Bead Release in Glass Fusing - Removing the bead release after fusing a piece can be difficult to accomplish sometimes. This particular page will give a few recommendations for removing release after firing.
In fusing, bead release is sometimes used to cover a mandrel. Once dried, the mandrel is placed between layers of glass to leave an opening or channel in the glass. This substance turns from a grey-brown to white when fired inside the kiln. It is then washed off of the glass. Sometimes it can be a little stubborn and difficult to remove. This page offers some suggestions on how to remove the material from glass.
