    I worked with epoxy mixed with glass enamel powder for quite a
    while. I never had any problem with cross contamination between the
    resin and the silver. Some types of epoxy yellow over time (a year
    or more), but the metal was (still is) fine, and those epoxies
    yellow whether they're in contact with metal or not. I can't comment
    on Colores or any of the other types of resins.                     
                                                                        
    And, for Pete's sake, can we stop gnawing on the nomenclature? So it
    isn't traditional enamel. Neither is the Red Devil paint I put on my
    kid's dresser, but that is called enamel. No one is misled by that.
    Let's just agree to disagree, OK? 

Noel
