Default Thompson enamels for 90-96 coe

I love the enamels 104. They are stunning. Has anybody tried the 90-96 coe enamels on the R-96 glass? What did you think? I'd love to see a photo..
Thanks,
Cher

I suspected these were not used much in the way that I am questioning. I will have to give it a try and let you know how well it works.

I have a smattering of them, and made beads with them several years ago. Encased, not encased. I check them every 6 months or so to see if there are any cracks, but everything has held up very well.

Lots of the initial information that I had on them indicated that they were not compatible (with 90 coe). I live close to the Thompson factory, and talked to them, and purchased some.

I don't use them often, but I haven't had breakage.

Thanks Lynda! I will be using it on 96 so that sounds great! Do you have any photos?

I recently purchased the 90/96 enamels from thompson. I haven't played extensively with them yet. Just one outting and that was with 90 not 96. But I plan on using them with both. I'm glad you posted thread ... I wanted to see, too, what success everyone else has had with them.
