I haven't read all 9 posts above so I am probably repeating someone but if I remember correctly you want let the core of the bead cool a little more than normal because once you add the intense black you need to blast the snot out the surface to get it to breakup and web out and if you do that to a bead that has a warm core it will puddle on your bench in a hurry.

You could try using a transparent as a tiny core before covering it in ivory because transparents are stiffer and less prone to dripping off the mandrel while you chase the elusive webbing.

I haven't done much webbing myself so I am pulling this out of my "I read this years ago and I think remember it correctly" pocket.

Please come back here and teach us what you figure out.


And don't get old. Your memory goes to pot.
