It takes a lot of trial and error to get fusing down to a science. Don't burn yourself up over it!
The products listed on this page will help to make your firing times execute smoothly.

ZYP Boron Nitride Mold Release

The product formerly known as MR-97.
ZYP works wonderfully as a ceramic or stainless steel mold release. It's easy to use, simply spray this aerosol on your slumping or casting mold at room temperature (wear a dust mask and spray outside only for safety). Easy spray-on formula provides a uniform slick coating to produce a flawlessly smooth and easily released project.

13-ounce container will prime about 20 medium sized molds. You may need to touch up the areas where the glass touches the mold after 4 or 5 firings. Be sure to periodically brush off previous applications with a nylon brush to prevent build up.

Sold in 13 oz canisters. Note: This item cannot be shipped via air.

Techniglass MO-RE Boron Nitride Mold Release MO-RE Boron Nitride Mold Release

The premier boron nitride mold release made especially for the fusing glass enthusiast and professional.

Radically Different
Glass is the most difficult application to release, that�s why Techniglass has formulated MO-RE specifically for the art glass industry. With a non-flammable solvent base, MO-RE produces an effortless release for a wide array of molds.

Reduced Prep Time
Application and cleanup are simple compared to brush-on primers; MO-RE sprays on quick and evenly with self-leveling capabilities. No exposed mold or mold sticking to glass piece.

Flawless Release
Eliminate post-fire work with MO-RE�s unique composition, allowing glass to move freely during the firing process. When boron nitride release spray is applied evenly, each mold will release clean with no spiked edges or film left on glass. No need to grind off rough edges!

Reduce Cost per Application
MO-RE can be used sparingly, due to its self-leveling component one will never need to worry of an uneven surface or bare mold. Only a light coating is necessary � by reducing the amount applied to each mold, less mold release is used during the application process.

Sold in 12 oz and 8 oz cans. Note: This item can only be shipped via ground.

Papyros Kiln Shelf Paper is a ceramic-based paper specially formulated for glass fusing. When placed between the kiln shelf and the underside of a glass project, Papyros prevents the glass from sticking to the shelf during firing. Papyros is available in 20.5"x20.5" sheets or in a space-saving 20.5" wide, 82 foot long Craft Roll that comes packaged in a handy dispensing box. Cut only what you need!

Because of its sturdy composition, Papyros provides excellent glass/kiln shelf separation on the first use, and it is possible, under certain circumstances, be re-used in subsequent firings, as well. How long post-fired Papyros retains its integrity depends on the type of glass used on the project underside (Opal vs. Transparent), the nature of the project (volume/construction), as well as the final fusing temperature (degree of glass movement in the kiln). Clean up is simple via a studio spatula or using your favorite HEPA shop vacuum.

Bullseye Thin Fire Paper

Bullseye THINFIRE Shelf Paper

This heat-resistant, light weight ceramic impregnated paper, provides excellent separation between kin shelf and glass in kiln firing applications up to 1600°F. Paper is .008" thick.

Compared to conventional kiln washes, Thinfire reduces shelf preparation time and improves surface release quality. A single layer of paper will prevent molten glass from sticking to your shelf at full fuse. Sheets are 20" x 20".

Clear Coat Overglaze

One of the best and safest overglaze. It does not contain any lead or glass powders, only a natural fluxing agent that produces a durable glossy shine on the surface of your fired glass. Completely safe to use on food bearing surfaces. Ideal for use on clear window glass, as well as colored glass like Spectrum and Bullseye, Uroboros and others. To apply, just brush or spray a light coat onto the top surface of the glass being fused. Has a working range of 1350°F to 1550°F. 8 or 32 oz. bottle.
