| You get what you pay for!
| 
|
Pros : "Inexpensive" is it's only redeeming quality!
|
Cons : Several projects I've done with this product are sitting around my home because I can't bring myself to sell the end result.
This paper leaves the underside of your project very rough. Wiping anything across this surface (cloth, paper towel, even your finger) leaves a cloudy trail. This rough texture does not disappear when slumped in a mold meticulously covered in primer. If not cut just slightly larger than your glass, it will curl up and ruin your project.
The savings you get with this stuff is just not worth the difference in price between it and the more expensive paper!
|
| Other Thoughts : In the future, I will be sure to read the reviews of products I have never used before. |
| economy is what you get!
|
|
Pros : Inexpensive and should be used with only light colored glass.
|
Cons : It is all over my darker glass.It curls too. Nasty.
|
| Other Thoughts : Cheap always turn out to be more expensive. I lost about 30 pendants to this paper. |
| shelf paper
|
|
Pros : inexpensive
|
Cons : folds over on glass during firing leaving a white residue that does not come off . disappointing.....
|
| don't do it.
|
|
Pros : no pros to this product.
|
Cons : somehow the paper flew over my glass while in the kiln and stuck to the surface creating a rough finsih - i had to sandblast it and refire.
|
| Other Thoughts : buy the Bullseye Thinfire Shelf Paper instead. |
| Curling shelf paper
| 
|
Pros : Much easier to use than kiln wash. I never had a curling problem on smaller pieces.
|
Cons : Recently the paper has started to curl up on some of my larger pieces. Very annoying and not the effect wanted. I recently had to stop in mid fuse at the 1000 degree range on a black project. I hope it can be saved. Will definately cut closer to size on next fuse.
|
| Other Thoughts : Seems to curl less on slower fuses. Maybe that is the key to use. |
| economy shelf paper
| 
|
Pros : I love using this product! I just have a small kiln..it prevents me from having to use the messy shelf wash!! I cut into small squares and it never curls up. I have never had a problem with it sticking to the glass. I wash my cabochons after they are cooled.
|
Cons : I do not have any cons
|
| Economy Shelf Paper
|
|
Pros : None
|
Cons : Do not like, it sticks to the glass.
|
| waste of money
|
|
Pros : Cheap in price but if you can't use it then it is not that cheap.
|
Cons : Leaves paper residue on the back of the glass which looks horrible. Rolls up the sides of the glass in full fuse.
|
| Other Thoughts : This is a waste of money. I ruined alot of glass and now have unusable paper. Pay extra to get another brand like Bullseye. |
| Economy Shelf Paper -UGH!
|
|
Pros : Cheap price, but not much else to be said for it.
|
Cons : Curls and messes up the finish of the piece where it touches. Can be trimmed close or weighted to avoid this, BUT this time when slumping, it "blew" 2 strips of white dust onto the top of my piece. (Air escaping from the mold?)
|
| Only if you have too!
|
|
Pros : Leaves smooth surface, price.
|
Cons : Edges roll up and leave a cloud on the project. Have used glass scraps to hold down, still have problem. Used many times. Better off spending money on Bullseye Thinfire.
