HINT: Copper Foil has a shelf life of over a year. Keeping your foil in a sealed zipper plastic bag in a cool, dry place will keep the adhesive fresh and the copper free of oxidation

SPECIALTY FOIL includes colored back foils and copper foil sheets. Color-backed foil was developed to overcome the copper edge that shows from the back side of your work when using clear glass or mirror.

  • BLACK BACKED FOIL is used when you use black patina. Not sure what foil to use? Black Backed is the safest choice if you're not sure which is best = goes with anything!.

  • SILVER BACKED FOIL is used when you leave the solder silver. 

  • SHEET FOIL comes in 12x12" squares with copper or black back. Cuts easily with a craft knife to make foil overlays, cut custom width foil, etc. 1.25 mil thick

  • All foil is sold on 36 yard (108 feet) rolls
