If you have never seen our fuse bar, it is an extremely helpful reference tool to assist artists with attaining “on-target” colors for all Dichroic fusing. They have been available to teachers and distributors for many years and are now available to the general public.
The fuse bar features 22 of our premium and standard colors fused four ways, side-by-side:
1)Dichroic on black. 2)Dichroic on clear. 3)Dichroic with a clear cap.4)Dichroic straight up.
The differences and similarities are readily seen and give a more definitive picture of target colors, which are clearly marked on the back.
If you truly want and need to have precise colors, and don’t want any more “happy accidents”, this is the fusing tool for you.

World Exclusive Crinklized Dichroic™: A New Dichroic Coating Product
Original CBS Dichroic is tried and true and known to fuse with a smooth finish.
Our new Crinklized Dichroic™ is the exact opposite- Fusing rough with a brilliantly colored coarse texture. When fusing with the coating exposed or capped, the Dichroic surface crinkles and crystallizes profusely sending thousands of miniature crystalline-like mirrors upward, positioning themselves in different directions. Each minute Dichroic surface attracts the light and sends it out in every direction, while the Dichroic crystals remain bonded to the surface of the glass exactly like our CBS original product.
The new coating is made of extremely thick crystal layers that are the key to the effects that we achieve from fusing the Crinklized Dichroic™. For over the past five years now, these new proprietary Dichroic coatings have been investigated, developed and tested, and are now available to the eager artist.
Our CBS research department has come up with an amazing new product- Dichroic Copper Foil! In testing out this new product we have found that some of the benefits of the Dichroic copper foil are as follows:
½ the cost of Dichroic glass
Non COE specific (use with ANY type of glass).
Doesn’t need to be pre-heated – The coating jumps off of the copper and attaches to molten glass when marvering.
1/2 pound bag of 1/2" squares in random Dichroic colors. On black glass only. View details for sample artwork by Robin Evans using Dichroic mosaic pieces.
