CiM Tester Feedback

Rose Quartz was reformulated in autumn 2007. Original batches of Rose Quartz varied widely when worked; some results were transparent, some opalescent or translucent, and some opaque. We reformulated Rose Quartz in order to provide a more consistent opalescent working experience.    If you are uncertain which batch you have, please e-mail info@creationismessy.com for more information.
