Glass coatings colors

Dear Sir,

I am an artist. I am working glass and I want to make some colors at the surface. I want to do these coatings by spray below 650 °C. Have you some informations to produce red coatings, blue coatings, black coatings and white coatings? Thank you very much.

Why don't you try simply using spray paint and some sort of stencil? What kind of requirements do you have? Are you looking for coloring you can see through similar to stained glass?

Why don't you experiment with colored vitreous enamels, rather than attempting a top color. Go to the www.thompsonenamel.com website for more info.

Please check www.glasskote.com website. It may be of interest to you. The coating involved here is now being used widely around the world. It does not require any baking at all. Thank you Steven
