Copper Green—How do you keep reduction?
I love copper on Turquoise and Copper Green. I can get it in a reduction flame, but it disappears as soon as I take it out of the flame.
Any suggestions on how to keep it reduced?

Cook the hell out of it.
Try Dark Sky, Petroleum Green and Tribal Turquoise if you have any.

if it is cool enough before you remove it from the flame ( that sounds like an oxymoron )
it should not re-oxidize

You are talking about the red (iron oxide) color right? Not the grayish haze that copper green gets.

I've only tried the green Copper Green. Maybe that's why I can't get it.
