FAQ
What COE of glass can your decals be used on?
Our decals can be used on 90, 96 and 104 COE glass. Basically, if the glass can withstand the temperatures necessary to fuse the decals on, our decals will come out crisp and clear no matter what type of glass you use.
Which decals do I use? LOW or HIGH fire?
You can use BOTH! The difference between low and high fire decals is just the tempature they are "cooked" to allow the substrate to burn away and make the decal permanent. Generally, the white and gold decals are high fire as they require are higher temp to cure. Which ever you use, the firing schedules are below full fuse temps, which means you can use any ones you choose!
Do I fire the decals between to layers? Can I put a clear Cap over the decals?
NO! The decals will be your LAST firing and go on your FINISHED, fire polished or cold worked piece. Do not clear cap.
The decals rubbed off, what happened?
If your decals rub off or blow away like powder after firing, they have not been fired long enough! Check to see if you are firing high fire decals at low temp or are you holding for 8-10 min.?
Why did the decals blister or crack?
You over fired or held your hold time to long.
Why are there "pinholes" in my decals after firing?
You did not get all the air bubbles out of the decals before firing! Take a paper towel and make sure to squeeze any excess water off the decal when applying. Let dry for 24 hours before firing - very important!
Do you sell wholesale? YES!
