Ok interesting... So just blast it in the pyrex and let it sit.... How do you determine its dry enough and ready to be scraped?
or blast onto a shower door, more surface area speeds up the evap.

when it's not gooey anymore, it's dry.
when the bubbles shatter and it flakes when scraped.
Ok cool, gonna give it a try with a batch. Since I will prob only run like a oz of trim, it wont be as thick as yours in the pics so i figure mine wont take as long to dry. Fun stuff.
He is a jerk and swing pads are for girls! Oversized nails all day.

he's actually a jerk to a lot of people, and his sister blew his rigs for years. so they kinda are for girls.
So ur doing a natural heat purge?.it's been in the 90's here lately. it relaxes at room temp in my playhouse.
i have used a small hot plate when vac'ing just to see if it would bubble. i typically don't even bother with either though. i bought the vac for glass blowing. it's more for shits and giggles then anything.

Titanium huh. I've always wondered about Tungsten Carbide.Quartz is to glass as steel is to butter. Glass melts like butter, quartz melts like steel. In fact, it melts at 3000(f) versus borosilicates 1500(f). Because of this, quartz nails last a lot longer than borosilicate glass nails, and anyone with a glassblowing torch can work quartz. Most glassblowers dont have cnc and lathes for cutting titanium, and wouldnt want to either. Quartz is used over borosilicate because it wont break as often as borosilicate or stress as much. Titanium is used over quartz because it lasts forever -- it's the last nail you ever buy.![]()

Tungsten picks melt in about 10 seconds in the torches flame, and they also have a substantial amount of gasses that burn off of it which scars glass every time........ Given that, I'd never try tungsten and oil together............
