Kathy: What you might be using is "Rainbow Red" - it's quite a pain sometimes, and it can turn a muddy, "blood" (real blood, that is!) reddish color. I'd try Medium Red Effetre and a good Striking Red - see how that works.
Cynthia: Thanks for clarifying - now I know why I didn't get it...didn't occur to me to use this to reshape and reround the beads - but it makes perfect sense. Best part - I have one of these...now I know what to use it for (giggle!)
Thanks again everyone! Keep the goodies coming....
