I have made pieces in the past with Silver foil on BE reactive Ice and gotten a nice fume pattern. I am wondering if I use Tekta and Reactive Ice powder with Silver it will give a similar effect?

Silver needs to be on top for best results, but would work.

While it did react, and there was some Halo, it wasn't nearly as intense as on the glass itself. Tried several different thicknesses of the powder, but it distorted the transparency in relation to its depth. So, these will just cost more in the future. So the answer is Yes, but....

Maybe try to fuse the powder first then refuse with the silver?
