Description

Overview

TAG Knight Rider is a dense, smooth black borosilicate color rod from Trautman Art Glass (TAG) designed to stay solid and opaque, even when you pull it down into fine stringer.

It prefers an oxygen-rich flame and can start to gray out if you work it in reduction, so keeping your flame clean is the key to getting that deep, true black finish.


Why this color

A reliable black is one of the most-used colors on the bench, and Knight Rider is built for exactly that role: strong coverage, clean lines, and consistent results across a wide range of techniques.

Because it holds its density well when thinned out, it’s a great choice for crisp detail work where you don’t want your black turning smoky or transparent as you stretch it.


Best uses

  • Pulling stringer for linework, dot stacks, and fine detail that still reads black
  • Backing and outlining bright colors to increase contrast
  • Solid black accents, bands, and graphic pattern work
  • Deep black bases for encasement and layered color builds
