Silver pink
 
How do I use silver pink to get the most out of it? What can I expect? Thanks everyone!

Silver pink is misnamed. It reacts with other colors, but it doesn't turn pink. For that, you need Harry Potter's wand.

Are there any good reactions? I just got dark spots.

Silver pink is also misnamed because it's not a silver glass. It's my favorite go-to color after opal yellow. It's not super reactive (like ivory or tongue pink or powder pink) so it makes a great neutral base color for many other colors and is beautiful with frit blends in the pink and purple families.

Ok, just made a few samples with the frits on hand, one was hyacinth purple. The other two were multi colored. The one with purple I tried reducing and it reacted but instead of purple it was metallic black. So I reheated it thinking the purple looked better. Curious what will come out of the kiln in the morning... The other frit blends didn't react like that.
