Using The FOILER, artists can simplify the process of applying foil to their stained-glass art creations. The foil can be dispensed quickly and accurately centered onto the glass edge. Supporting the three most popular foil sizes, the artist has the ability to accommodate variations in glass thickness, texture and personal solder width preference.
THE FOILING PROCESS SIMPLIFIED!
PRECISE, FAST, EFFICIENT, REVOLUTIONARY!
Package Contents:
The initial package includes:
- THE FOILER
- One (1) 7/32” Copper-Backed Foil Cassette, pre-loaded with corresponding tip
- Two (2) Additional Tips : 3/16″ and 1/4″
COMPACT & PORTABLE
THE FOILER is compact and portable, making it easy to take to class or work wherever inspiration strikes.
EZ-View Window
Monitoring the amount of foil remaining on the cassette is crucial when foiling glass. With the EZ-View Window, you can easily observe the foil level at all times.
HANDHELD
While holding THE FOILER in your hand, you can effortlessly glide the TIP along any standard glass edge, regardless of the glass texture or shape.
Ambidextrous and Ergonomic
THE FOILER is designed for both left and right-handed users, offering a comfortable grip for precise application, even for individuals with limited hand strength.
Built-in Blade & CRIMPER/BURNISHER
The FOILER’s Built-In Blade cuts the foil cleanly, separating the glass piece from the tip applicator. Once separated, the Crimper/Burnisher folds the copper foil down over both glass edges.
VERSATILE AND TECHNOLOGICALLY ADVANCED DESIGN
THE FOILING PROCESS
To create an iconic stained-glass piece, the perimeter edge of each piece of glass in the project must be wrapped with copper foil. The foil must be carefully centered, then folded down (crimped) and burnished flat to both the front and back sides of the glass.
FROM ZERO TO INFINITY THE FOILER ACCOMODATES ANY SIZE GLASS!
Perfectly Centered
While holding THE FOILER in your hand, you can effortlessly glide the TIP along any standard glass edge, regardless of the glass texture or shape.

Constructed with a robust powder-coated aluminum base and a soft silicone seat, this design ensures both durability and cushioned support to THE FOILER.
ADJUSTABLE
THE FOILER STATION is compatible with any tabletop up to 2.5 inches (6.35 cm) thick.
COMPACT SPACE SAVING DESIGN
Occupying a small footprint,THE FOILER STATION is designed for efficiency. Space-saving solutions are essential for optimizing hobbyist and classroom settings with limited workspace.

Compact, Color-Coded Cassette
Further revolutionizing the hand foiling experience, Techniglass has designed a high-quality copper foil in a compact format for a comfortable and ergonomic grip. The color-coded core allows for instant identification of the foil width, adding to the convenience and efficiency of use.
COMPACT SIZE for Easy
Hand Foiling
THE FOIL‘s ergonomic design ensures a comfortable fit in your hand, allowing for
effortless maneuvering around glass pieces.
The patent-pending petite diameter core is an ideal size for traditional hand foiling or for use
with The Foiler.
High Tack Adhesive Adheres to Glass Surface
THE FOIL Cassette offers an ultra-adhesive tack, ensuring effortless application and a secure bond that won’t lift during your project.
Resistant to Tearing
The thickness of THE FOIL plays a crucial role in its resistance to tearing. Thicker foil offers
enhanced strength and durability, making THE FOIL less prone to tearing during use. This increased thickness is especially important when wrapping corners, enabling continuous and trouble-free foiling.
Easy Identification for Beginners and Experienced Artists
Each FOILER CASSETTE CORE and TIP feature a bright color corresponding to the copper foil width for easy recognition. THE FOIL features a visual system that facilitates the identification of the correct size, addressing the confusion that other foils may cause for both novice and seasoned artists. In contrast, unlabeled cores necessitate an additional step of manually marking the size with a label or marker.
THE FOIL OPTIONS
State-of-the-Art Packaging Prolongs Foil Life
Not only is it eye-catching and practical with a zip closure; the special vapor-barrier aluminum zip pouch with a moisture-adsorbing desiccant ensures the foil cassette remains fresh and long-lasting.
A further advantage is that unused foil can be re-sealed and stored in the zip pouch, effectively preventing moisture from entering and minimizing oxidation.
Classic Variety of Backing Colors AND Intended Use
THE FOIL is available in three different backing colors–silver, copper, or black. Selection of a backing color is usually based on the finished color of solder that will be used to obtain a cohesive look for your art object. This attention to detail is especially important for clear glass projects.
Black Backed Foil: Use this for artwork projects that require black patina finish where non-opalescent & clear glass is used.
Copper Backed Foil: Use this for artwork projects that require copper patina and where clear glass is used.
Silver Backed Foil: If you desire natural silver solder lines without using a patina process, silver-backed foil is the ideal choice.
