Luminescent coating is unlike anything else - offering up options for intense color, subtle shimmer or the ability to make it disappear entirely!
The coating on Luminescent glass is similar to iriddised coatings, however it reacts completely differently when fired. It's ideal for reverse fusing projects, where the front of your piece is face down on the kiln shelf and you build backwards. This allows you to create in a whole new way, and your art will look its best from both sides!
Luminescent coating is applied to Bright Blue Transparent glass , ideal for creating layered art. Standard 3mm thick glass offers affordable luxury for your fusing projects. 90 COE
Fire glass luminescent side down to ensure the coating will remain intact for additional firings. In subsequent firings use the lowest temperature required to achieve desired results. Delphi Expert Jeannette W. suggests a maximum temperature of 1400°F.
