Bullseye sample set - how reliable is COE?

Post by Peg »

Anyone tried fusing bits of their Bullseye fusing sample set?
The disclaimer says the samples are not tested for fusing (the colours representing the post-fuse colour of the real stuff) - but I'm tempted to use the thin bits and keep the thick ones for colour reference.
Is it worth the risk?

Any glass not marked as compatible should be tested. Not sure if that will leave enough of the sample pieces to make it worth it.
