When the laser hits the glass it heats any metal within the product very quickly cause it to shatter so i dont think the wet towel will do anything for u either as it the metal in the glass heating up
:nono: I have no problems etching leaded glass. In this case I'm willing to bet there was simply a major flaw in the glass, and the laser heated it up until it gave way.
