  • Glass Mosaic Tb136
    Glass Mosaic Installation Technical Bulletin Category: Tiling Keywords: Glass Mosaic, Tile, Thin Set, Grout Glass mosaics bring a beautiful look to any surface. Glass Mosaics come in different types, sizes, colors and patterns and are used in residential and commercial projects on backsplashes above sink, bathrooms, showers, and fireplaces. There are 3 different types of glass tile; cast glass tile, fused glass tile, and low- temperature-coated glass tile as per ANSI A137.2 standard. Typically glass mosaics are larger than ¾”x ¾” and smaller than 3”x3”. Many questions have come up on which setting materials to use for a long lasting glass mosaic installation. In this technical bulletin will help you to select the appropriate Merkrete products for setting glass mosaics. Considerations to take before installing glass mosaics: Substrates All substrates should be plumb and true, substrate deviation should not exceed 1/8” in 10’ or 1/16 in 3’. Substrate preparation should be completed following ANSI A108 AN-2 “General Requirements for Sub- surfaces. Substrate should be dry, clean and free from oil, grease, wax, paint, old adhesives, sealers and curing compounds. Any contaminates which inhibit proper bond must be removed. Recommendation for setting: Merkrete Integra - Is a non-abrasive all-in-one adhesive and grout for glass mosaics installations on walls and floors. Integra was developed especially for the installation of mosaics and glass tile of all shapes and sizes with no concerns about thin set color bleed through because the adhesive and the grout are the same color. Merkrete Integra is available in 8 different colors.

  • Bullseye Glass Co. / Classes & Special Events
    Bullseye Glass Co. | Classes & Special Events May to September 2012 • Emeryville, California From the Director Artist Klaus Moje at Resource Center Portland, 2007. What is Kiln-Glass? In 1974 three self-described “hippie glassblowers” started Bullseye Glass Company, a small factory for making specialty sheet glass in Portland, Oregon. While they initially focused on making colored sheets for use in stained glass, they aspired to do what had never been done before: to produce a palette of colored glasses tested to be compatible for fusing with one another for producing works in the kiln. By 1979 they had succeeded, but immediately ran into a challenge: they had created something remarkable for which almost no demand existed. Ever the innovators, they decided to embark on a long-term program of research projects working directly with artists to help pioneer and expand the technical, aesthetic and conceptual development of the field that is today known as kiln-glass. Kiln-glass is a term that describes an enormous range of techniques and outcomes that are radically more accessible than many other working methods, such as glassblowing, in which one must first develop basic physical skills for years before being able to effectively realize well-executed works. By contrast, many of the skills required for kiln-glass are things that most artists already possess: an understanding of design, composition, color theory, and the ability to conceive of layers of process and material application. And while kiln-glass does require basic knowledge of technical issues and nuances, these are readily obtained in short order through publications and curriculum that have been developed as an outgrowth of Bullseye’s years of collaboration with artists.

    Understanding Firing Schedules Learn about the components of a glass fi ring schedule so you can create your own schedule for any project you want to try. BASICS – Ramp - Temperature - Hold HEATWORK – Time/Temperature Tango. COE – how it aff ects fi ring schedules. VISCOSITY – how it aff ects fi ring schedules. THICKNESS– how it aff ects fi ring schedules PREDICTION - ending accidents. ANNEALING – how and why EVENIVITY– the magic word. VOLUME CONTROL SPECIAL SCHEDULES for special eff ects. My Personal Promise The temperatures and times I refer to here for fi ring schedules are not guesswork and are not copied from comments of others. There are the result of 40 years working as a glass artisan and over 20,000 kiln fi rings. I made it a point to do comparison tests to rigid standard.
