Anyone out there with glaze calculating software. Can I substitute F4 for C6?

I know I am late with this (been out of town) but I don't see any answers so....

Expansion rates are almost the same according to my analyses - the C6 has a
little more SiO2 and a little less Al2O3. I would expect very little
difference - maybe a bit more shine. If you have already tried it would you
let me know what happened please.
