• Glass Fusing With Quik...
(I'm having a problem getting an active link... copy and paste or tell me what I'm doing wrong! LOL!)
She did some really nice things and got beautiful results. After this quick experiment I went on to other things and when I came back to my jar of goo, it was hardened. I put the top on tight but I should have stored it more carefully. Just a heads up for those who try this, use it up promptly. My closing remark is yep, it really works! I just did this quick experiment for those who were curious so I didn't fully explore the possibilities. Yes, there are some compatibility issues and I had some minor cracking of the glass over time. Use at your own risk, educate yourself and always be aware of the science of COE :-)
Edit: LOL! Chill, y'all. No, it does not contain lead, it would melt and burn up if there was even a little lead in it. Yes, it's perfectly fine to use metal INSIDE the KILN in the microwave. The kiln interior is also a metallic compound. Eh, there could be some very minimal fumes but since this is a HIGH HEAT compound they are minimal and good studio practice includes a safe ventilation system of course.

First experiment with "Quik Steel" metal repair compound. I used it to cast charms which were then fused in glass using a small microwave kiln.
