Oceanside Charcoal Opalescent (style OGT28076SF) is System 96 tested-compatible 96 COE fusible sheet glass, a deep opaque charcoal gray in a smooth surface.
Appearance
A dark, cool charcoal gray, fully opalescent so light does not pass through. It reads even across the sheet with a smooth glossy face and only faint tonal drift.
Working notes
As a dark opal it makes a strong background and outline color, reading the same over light or dark and making brighter colors stand out. The smooth face stays glossy through a full fuse and keeps more edge on a tack fuse. Behind transparents it deepens their color.
Reactions
This color is not on the System 96 reactive list, so it sits next to other colors without forming a reaction line. See the System 96 Reactive Color Chart for the colors that do react.
Format and sizes
Sold as 3mm smooth sheet glass. Choose your size from the options on this page.
Fusing and compatibility
Fuses cleanly with any 96 COE glass in the System 96 family. With other makers, matching COE alone does not guarantee a fit, so fire a test tile first.
