Hello Noel,

    You have taken quite a beating over this "resin" "cold" enamel
    thing! Some people don't know when to let sleeping dogs lie! When it
    comes to misnomers and nomenclature the jewelry industry is just as
    bad as the rest of the world. For example: "soldering" or "solder" as
    opposed to "brazing" or "brazing filler material". "Soldering" is
    when you are using lead or tin "solder", however, I have never heard
    anyone in this forum refering to "brazing" silver jump rings or where
    to find "brazing filler material". Nor have I heard anyone complain
    about it as it may "confuse" the potential customer and cause a
    "credibility" issue. 

    And no you can't say that super glueing something as "cold
    soldering", you may call it a "mechanical join". I'll let you! 

Chris
