Oceanside Chocolate Opalescent (style OGT21176SF) is System 96 tested-compatible 96 COE fusible sheet glass, a solid chocolate brown with a smooth surface.
Appearance
An even, warm milk-chocolate brown, opaque and consistent from edge to edge. The smooth face is flat and glossy with no ripple or grain, so the color reads as one solid tone that stays true in any light rather than shifting with the background behind it.
Working notes
Both faces are smooth, so orientation is a matter of preference. As an opalescent color it blocks light rather than passing it, which makes it a strong ground or base layer under brighter colors. A full fuse brings the surface to a glossy finish, while a tack fuse keeps stacked pieces defined on top of it.
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
Tested compatible with other System 96 glass, so it fuses cleanly with any 96 COE product in the System 96 family. When you combine it with glass from other makers, matching COE alone does not guarantee compatibility, so fire a small test tile first.
