| Dicro Slide |

Pros : I have found dicro slide to be very versatile, especially if you like being more creative. I've found it to be very popular on my pendants and I can use it on all COE,s of glass.
|
Cons : I am only halfway through my large set and they are starting to degrade. I must have bought them about a year ago, and back then I could use a hole punch without any damage to the punched out image, however now I can't punch out the gold or magenta/green without the dichroic image disintergrating off the film and into the water. Even just picking up a piece from in the water with tweezers or fingers is enough for it to just dissipate into the water and it is difficult to punch an image out without damaging it.It reminds me of what happens if you touch a butterfly wing,the wing loses its colour.I keep them separate and in their own packaging in a dry cupboard.
|
| Other Thoughts : Despite half the pack now being not very useful, I do love the stuff, and whatever dicro slide goes onto the glass and is fired is permanent and looks great, providing I can get a sharp image to begin with.I am saving for more, and I have learn't that I just need to use them up much more quickly. |
