Bullseye Pink Opal Fine Frit.

This colour matures to a pink upon firing. It is more of a purple pink compared to Petal Pink which maintains a brighter colour after firing.

This glass style requires a longer initial hold time during firing to reach the target colour - please see the working notes below.

Bullseye frit is made from crushed, screened and magnetically cleaned Bullseye Compatible sheet glass. Available in a huge variety of colours, frit gives the opportunity to add a unique element to your glass work. Frits are extremely versatile and can be used in kilnforming, including glass sketch and painting with light techniques, as well as in torch working and blowing, to create colours and patterns on surfaces.

Contains:

Lead

May React With:

Selenium, Sulphur

Cold characteristics:

Fine and Medium frits usually appear lighter than their fired colour, even when the glass is not a striker. Coarse frits less so. Please see the bottom half of the sheet glass image below for a better idea of the fired colour (bottom left for transparent colours).

Working notes:

Typically deepens in colouration on firing. Dark interface reaction possible with sulphur glasses (1137, 1437, 0137).

Some striking glasses like this one need to be fired slowly during the initial stages of the firing cycle. If fired too fast they may not strike at all or they may strike, but appear spotty and have a blue-brown cast as opposed to the desired target colour. A standard full-fuse schedule should work to strike these glasses:

Rate	Temp (C)	Hold
222	677	:30
333	804	:10
999	482	:60
83	371	end

For projects that are especially colour-sensitive, we recommend fusing a small sample, with a similar setup in the same kiln, to best predict final colour results.
