Frit
Made from crushed, screened, and magnetically cleaned Bullseye Compatible sheet glass.
Frits are versatile and can be used in:
- Pâte de verre and kilncasting
- Kilnforming, including "glass sketch" and "painting with light" techniques
- Torchworking and blowing, to create colors and patterns on surfaces.
Frit Notes
This style is not suitable for kilncasting because it can become incompatible when held at high temperatures for an extended period. It may also become incompatible in instances where processes exceed the parameters of the test for compatibility. Testing recommended when heatwork exceeds these parameters.
Reading the Color Swatches
The color of the frit in its unfired and fired states may differ greatly. Please refer to the second 'More Views' image to get a sense of the approximate fired color. In application, color saturation may vary. Thin layers may be lighter in color. Thicker layers may be darker and more saturated in color.
