In one of the glass studio that I'm doing my workshop, they have these really white very fine sand like material used to cool the beads. I find my beads rarely crack using this. It is so easy to slide the bead into it, no pressure needed. I guess this must be one of the reasons why my beads rarely crack, with vermiculite - I need to dig the bead into it resulting with crack beads, I guess ....
But the staff in the studio also doesn't know what these material is since the factory that gave it to them for trial has already closed. Does anyone know what these is and where to get them?

This sounds like the Annealing Bubbles I have here. The bubbles are smooth little spheres, just a little bigger than a grain of sand, and ranging from white to gray in color.
