Available in Powder, Fine, Medium and Coarse grade frit and a sample size of 30 grams, a 5oz Jar (141 grams) or 1lb Jar (450 grams).
It is made from crushed, screened, and magnetically cleaned Bullseye-compatible sheet glass.
The colour of the frit in its unfired and fired states may differ greatly. In application, colour saturation may vary. Thin layers may be lighter in colour. Thicker layers may be darker and more saturated in colour.
Colours That Strike
Many glasses that Bullseye produces appear pale or even colourless in their cold form but “strike” or mature to a target colour when fired to the right temperature. These styles are marked with the symbol above.
Not recommended for Stain Glass or Mosaics as Kiln required to achieve colour shown
-
Striker
This style may not reveal (strike to) its target colour until fired.
Cold Characteristics
Consistent in colour and looks more cream on the sheet than on the rod.
