Glass Paint "Aurora Borealis"

2002

I am looking for an Aurora Borealis Paint for glass.

Thanks so much.

Hi Stephanie. My google searching hasn't worked out quite what you mean by that. But there is a technique of very thin (partial wavelength) transparent coatings on glass that causes rainbow coloration by diffraction. If that's what you are looking for, search for "carnival glass". Good luck.
