Description:

Boro Batch Peafowl Test #29 Thins is a borosilicate color glass product made as thin, flat pieces intended for quick heat penetration and efficient color application. This test color is described as a transparent blue green, making it a strong choice when you want clean, luminous color that still allows light to pass through the finished work.

Thins are especially useful when you want to add color without introducing a lot of extra mass. Because the material is thin, it heats and moves quickly in the flame, which makes it well suited for surface wraps, quick overlays, and small color accents where you want the color to “get in and get out” without overcooking the base glass.

How it is used:

Use Peafowl Test #29 Thins the same way you would use other boro color for overlays and surface decoration, with the advantage that it comes up to working temperature quickly.

A common approach is to:

• Preheat the thin piece gently at the edge of the flame to reduce thermal shock
• Tack the thin onto your hot base tube or rod
• Wrap or lay it on as an overlay, then melt it in smoothly
• Use light heatwork to preserve the transparent blue green look and avoid excessive boiling

This form factor is also handy for small, controlled color placement on sculptural details, handles, and decorative bands where you want a transparent blue green accent without thickening the wall.
