Cold Color
Cold Color is any paint that is applied to glass and is not fired in a kiln. A few companies make paint that is formulated for glass and works pretty well. At times, most big time studios will use black cold color to touch up areas of painted glass in restoration projects after the panel is re assembled. Deco makes a line of these types of paints. I also have recently been turned onto a company called pebeo, based in France. They make paints that you heat up in a conventional residential oven to 325 degrees for 30 minutes. The color is really rich and they are easy to work with. You can also mix them together. Surprisingly Michaels craft stores carry them. The paint is called "Vitrea 160."
