Default Question about different pale aquas

What is the difference between Effetre's pale aqua and Reichebachs other than cost?

Are you using Reichenbach 104 or the blowing rods? The 104 won't be much different at all from Effetre/Moretti. The blowing rods work up much differently. I have found it to be much stiffer, harder to move. Great if you're doing sculpture or blown ornaments, not so much if you're trying to make beads with more than one color.

RL-4015 is a pristine color with a hint of mint that is a joy to work with.

Reichenbach Aqua is greener and a bit darker/more saturated than Effetre Pale Aqua. It is also a bit stiffer.
