BE Reactive Color Chart?

Post by KellyG »

Did a search in archives, but couldn't find info there.

Does anyone have or know where I can get a complete list of all BE reactive colors. I have a partial list from a hi-fire class, but I've seen reactions to colors not listed on my chart.

BTW, just out of curiosity, do spectrum colors react like BE?

Bullseye will give you a list, they've published it before. Brock

If it's the "Information courtesy of Mary Kay Nichie", I have that, but it's incomplete. There's no date on it, so I don't know if it's the most recent.

I'll contact BE tomorrow. Just hoping that a list had been published on the web somewhere.

Still curious about Spectrum color reactivity.

Thanks ...K

All colored glass is subject to reactions based on the chemicals chosen by the manufacturer to achieve the specific color.

Thanks Brad, great link. I didn't search old archives. Apparently, there's a wealth of info there.

The safest thing to do is test! You may find interesting ways to capitalize on the reactions.
