It’s called VersaMark. It’s a sticky substance that allows the mica to adhere to the glass.

Is Nancy saying she uses Versamark CLEAR? Is there a clear ink? Where can I find CLEAR? I’ve been in a couple of craft supply stores and find no clear ink pads. I looked online as well - no luck. Help please.

Versamark is sold at all craft stores plus Joann’s also has it. With a quick search, I found it on Amazon. It’s normally used for embossing. It is clear.

Well, the technique I showed in the video is a stamping technique. There are other techniques that you can mix the mice with a medium to paint with.

Do you have any problems with bubbles when capping the mica? I also thought about sifting clear powder over the top.

I found that with the schedule I posted, you should not have problems with bubbles. You can sift clear on top also

Hi, the one by my Lampwork area is made by Pampered Chef. I don’t know if they still make it. The red one by my designing table I bought at Dick Blicks many years ago. You can get those at any art supply store.

Great video but holy moly!!! You have to be more careful with mica powder, don't shake it, it goes into your lung, hair, skin and can cause bad permanent issues. I was working 3 years with mica powders and now even if I touch it cause problem. Just let you know. :)

When I use mica, I use an N-95 mask. I did not use one for the video, because I wanted people to hear me. I did mention it in the video to always wear a mask. Thank you for your concern, but it was mentioned. I urge you to watch the video.

Hi Nancy - super video! New to fusing. So, when capping, do you fire the mica first on the tile, or do you place a clear piece on top and do both the mica and capping in one firing?

No, it doesn’t. When you leave it uncapped, only the thin layer that directly touches the glass, fuses to the glass. The rest washes away. I like to cap my Mica so that all Mica gets trapped between the layers.
