Item Name:

SKU:
PXIE DST ANT. COPPER
Description:
Pixie Dust Antique Copper is a fine pigment powder formulated to create luminous metallic effects on glass artwork. This specialty powder is composed of antique copper pigments that adhere to hot glass surfaces, producing rich, warm metallic highlights when applied correctly. Pixie Dust pigments are designed to accentuate and highlight focal points of your glass pieces, adding dimensional depth and visual interest. The powder is available in 28-gram increments, allowing you to purchase the exact amount needed for your projects. When applied to red-hot glass and briefly annealed, the pigment fuses to the surface, creating a permanent decorative effect that can be further protected with a transparent coating.
How it is used:
- Heat your glass piece to a red-hot state in the flame
- Lightly immerse or coat the hot glass surface in the Pixie Dust powder
- Work quickly to ensure even coverage before the glass cools
- Briefly anneal the piece to fuse the pigment to the glass surface, being careful not to burn off the powder
- Allow the piece to cool slightly, then apply a transparent protective coating to seal and preserve the metallic finish
- Complete the annealing cycle to set the final decoration
