I was very confused for a while. I seemed to see a lot of people use "reduce" for different effects.
For instance, if one was talking about getting the desired effect from Raku... sometimes I saw the word 'reduce' used. If you use a propane rich flame with Raku, you get a shiny metal surface, that's for sure, but it's not the desired effect.
What happens with Raku is more "striking" ...where you heat and cool and reheat for a colour to happen.

with some Double helix colours, they do nifty things with both reduction and striking.
