  3. Great video Shannon - I still have some of my Permalac left, but when I run out, I'll stop by for some of the new sealant.

  4. Shannon, Love your Mom's studio! Thank you for the information on Clear Guard. If you want to protect a piece with stones in it would the Clear Guard be safe in that scenario? Thanks.

  5. Shannon,
    I love your videos and how your personality just shines through! In one of your other videos you mention being a 'dork' and it's so funny cause that's what I'm always telling my sister that I am (and I'm pretty proud of it, too!) :) Thanks for the info on the clear guard - good info to know! I like that you mention wearing respirator/lung protection (mask) to protect your lungs, etc. I'm in the Indoor Air Quality business and so "That's my business!" and you need to protect you 'breath' just like you'd protect your eyes from flying silver parts!! Great video!

  8. Thank you, Shannon, for that informative video. I'm new to metal-working and jewelry making. I've learned so much from your blog. Thank you for sharing your expertise! I finally shelled out the money and bought a pint of Pemalac for dipping small copper pieces. I was wondering if you have any tips for dipping small pieces of metal and washers in sealer. I haven't been able to come up with a good system. Any ideas.....?

  10. Thank you for the review of the Clear Guard; I've seen it advertised and had wondered if it could be as good as the Permalac. I've still got a bit of Permalac left, but I'm definitely going to try the Clear Guard when I run out. You're absolutely right about Permalac being cost prohibitive, the darned stuff should be made with gold it's so expensive.

  16. I purchased clear guard because of this review. I just used it on my jewelry and it made a powdery mess, totally dulling it. I had to sand it all off. Can you help me understand what's up?
