Oceanside Clear Transparent Noodles (style OGTN00F) is System 96 tested-compatible 96 COE fusible glass in noodle form, flat ribbon strands of clear glass.
Appearance
The noodles are clear and colorless, thin flat ribbons of transparent glass. Gathered in the tube they look pale and glassy with bright highlights along each strand. On their own they carry no color, so they add line and texture without changing the color underneath.
Working notes
As clear transparent glass the noodles pass light and take on whatever sits behind or below them. A full fuse melts the strands flat and folds them into the surface, while a tack fuse leaves the raised ribbon lines as clear texture. Because they are colorless they are useful for adding structure and highlights over a colored base without hiding 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.
Using the noodles
Noodles are thin flat ribbons of glass, made for laying stripes, borders, and clean linear detail across a base sheet. Place clear noodles over a colored ground to add raised lines and highlights, then cut them to length with a running or nipping tool. This is System 96 glass at 96 COE.
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.
