I got a sample pack from CBS for participating at the vegas IHGI. Thank you CBS. What is this stuff it looks like the layer of dichro is like the thickness of aluminum foil . the packaging says its pyrex but the website says its 90 coe. Im not to good with dichroic to begin with so anytips with this stuff would help before i wreck it all. thanks

The crinklized dichroic only comes in 90 & 96 coe. I don't think I'd be wrapping up any in boro pieces. What up, DA, where's the crinkly dichro for us?

Dichro has no COE....It works for all glass. It's like saying gold leaf only works for Bullseye.

Tips for Using Our New Crinklized Dichroic™

Crinklized Dichroic™ is MADE to be left exposed. The intrinsic nature of this new coating is much more exaggerated when the coating is allowed to push upwards and crinkle, crystallize and curl.

* Many of the Crinklized sheets appear to have an unusual reflective color prior to hotworking, especially when the coating is viewed from the back side of a clear sheet. This all fires away to reveal the same brilliant CBS Dichroic colors that everyone expects.

* Expect similar predictable color shifts when hotworking the new Crinklized Dichroic™ as with CBS original coatings.


That is what it says on their site.. If it helps. We have it on order but not in stock yet.
