Manufacturer : Northstar Glassworks |
NS-28 Blue Exotic: The Exotic family contains the most saturated striking colors in the Northstar family. NS-28 Blue Exotic can yield a mirror like blue metallic finish, and if over-reduced, an organic earthy tone as well. To keep the Exotics most vibrant, work them in a super oxidizing environment until you are finished with the piece. Then, turn the flame down and bathe the piece in a super-reducing flame for several seconds to produce the mirror-like sheen. Another great effect that is possible with the Exotics is encasement with clear. This group of colors can be stretched out and is great for blown work. If heavily encased, be sure to anneal thoroughly. Exotics are also enhanced by a backing with NS-54 Star White. Try layering NS-09 Yellow over NS-28 Blue Exotic. These frits and powders have been formulated for use with Pyrex®, Duran®, Kimax®, Northstar® or any other glass with a similar coefficient of thermal expansion (33). Using frits and powders provide the hot glass artist with a means of adding color and/or texture to a piece quickly and easily.
This frit grain size is Small, approximately .024 inches or .6096 mm.
