NUCLEAR GREEN GLOWS UNDER BLACKLIGHT

Nuclear Green Crushed Opal is rich with a toxic chemical green color that could have only been created in a mad scientist’s lab. This color will ooze right in front of your eyes with its vibrant coloring. Perfect for any daring experiments you are looking for in your next project.

What is Nuclear Green Crushed Opal?

Nuclear Green Crushed Opal is a synthetic lab-made material that consists of Silica and Polymer rather than hydrated silica (natural opal). The polymer stabilizes our opal which in turn makes it easier for jewelry making. You will experience less cracking and crazing that can be detrimental when using natural opal in jewelry. By using a polymer it also creates a slightly softer product making it superior for turning and cabbing. Our crushed opal does not fall victim to color fading and is resistant to chemicals such as acetone and alcohol. 

Crushed Opal takes around one year to grow in a controlled environment. This is a complex process of layering to create the unique color patterns. The first form of synthetic opal is a rough cut of stone. This rough cut synthetic stone is then crushed down and sifted into the desired stone sizes. After our testing we determined the perfect stone sizes to offer; Large, Medium, Fine, and Powder forms. 

Our photos are representing our crushed opal by what it will look like "wet" or when added to your project. Adding an adhesive, glue, resin, nail polish, and/or etc. to our opal brings it to life. Opal will look best in natural lighting or once added to your project. The crushing process may make the stone pieces appear less colorful to the naked human eye but do not be fouled; this product comes to life once in use. Fine sized can look lighter in color due to the crushing process, but once again will brighten up with use. Our Crushed Opal may not be as vibrant until in use. Please try our products in your project for best color results. *Color on your screen can appear differently from device to device, please keep this in mind.

Please keep in mind that the material can only withstand heat up to a rough estimate of 250 degrees Fahrenheit. Please proceed at your own risk.

Why is Our Crushed Opal Transparent?

The transparent nature of our crushed opal allows the inlay material to be color shifting. This means that every color of crushed opal has a base color and a secondary color that can be visible depending on how you use the product. We suggest painting the inlay space before placing the stones because this will allow you to control the color play. If you want a rich and great looking inlay, try painting the inlay space black. If you want to bring out the base color or secondary colors, try painting the inlay space with a similar color.

    Great for gold inlay too!!

    I've only had the best customer survive experience with Opal Dealer! I make gold teeth and wanted to use their inlay to accent my work, but I wasn't sure about how it would react in gold. I emailed to ask and very promptly they got back to me. I recently thought I lost a package, again they got back to me ready to help! This nuclear green color was the first I used in a 14k green gold tooth and when I say it turned out great, it looked SICK!!!! Amazing 10/10 business. Will and do come back for more.
