float fusing questions

[jiminyrootkit]

so, anyone here have experience with any of the various coloring agents available for fusing with float (window) glass?
plusses, minuses, stay the hell away froms?
bullseye's fun to play with, but DAMN it's steep as far as large surface area
thanks

Frank,

Stacks of info on this is in the archives on warmglass.com

I know BE is clearer, just the bubbles and cost eh but float has the tint, so... 6 of one and half dozen of the other.

You can also check the bohle website for float compatible frit in you want to go that way.

Off the top of my head sunshine colours and Thomson enamels are what some folks do it with.

I paint on float with trad stain glass paints but the float side of the glass gives duff effects sometimes.

Sorry mate I just checked the Bohle site and they don't have a place stateside. But I'm sure someone else represents them, can't remember who it is.

Satellite Unique enamels.

Studio One in Vegas has them. I got them direct from the manufacturer, but I had to throw down for 2 cases.
