Oceanside Amazon Green Opal Stringers (style OGTS2264F) is System 96 tested-compatible 96 COE fusible glass in stringer form, thin threads in a bright light green.
Appearance
A fresh spring-green with a hint of yellow. As an opalescent the threads are opaque, holding the green as a solid line rather than passing light, and read clean and lively in the tube.
Working notes
The bright green stays as a clean line over any base. A full fuse melts the threads flat into the surface, a tack fuse leaves them raised for texture.
Reactions
This is a copper-bearing color, rated low on the System 96 reactive scale. Fused against a sulfur-bearing glass it can develop a reaction line or a shift in color where the two meet, an effect fusers use on purpose for shading and depth. Next to non-reactive colors it stays true. See the System 96 Reactive Color Chart for the colors it reacts with.
Using the stringers
Stringers are thin round threads for drawing lines, outlines, and fine detail. Lay them where you want it and snap them to length with your fingers or a nipper.
Fusing and compatibility
Tested compatible with other System 96 glass, so it fuses cleanly with any 96 COE product in the System 96 family. With glass from other makers, matching COE alone does not guarantee compatibility, so fire a small test tile first.
