At KOG the term "density" refers to the amount of light that any given sheet of glass will transmit. All Kokomo standard opalescent color combinations are available in a variety of densities to suit virtually any application. The codes listed below may be combined with most opalescent color numbers as shown in the following example:

Customer Responsibility
- When a shipment is delivered, check it immediately for damage. If any is noted, receive the shipment, and insure that the delivery company marks the delivery bill "goods delivered damaged". File a claim with the delivery company as soon as possible.
- After receiving the shipment and determining it to be in good condition, check the glass against your original order to insure that no factory packing errors have been made. Notify KOG as soon as possible (maximum of 60 days from date of receipt of order) in the event of a factory packing error, or if your shipment is in any way defective.
Installation Guidelines
Since each application of glass is subject to different conditions, we leave the determination of lite sizes and methods of installation a responsibility of designer, installer, and/or owner. Some points to remember:
- Art glass is primarily batched and processed for use in small pieces fastened together by lead and cement to form a unit.
- Care must be exercised to glaze with ample edge clearance. Because of possible warpage, do not force it to conform to a flat surface.
- Any glass with color introduced absorbs heat from the sun. A glass with multiple colors may absorb heat unevenly. Therefore, the possibility of any colored glass withstanding solar, sonic, weather and building stresses is greatly increased if lites are the smallest possible size. We recommend lites not exceed 16"x16".

Sample Boxes
We offer over 22,000 possible color/density/texture combinations, and the process of discontinuing and adding new products is continuous. Thus, it is impractical for us to assemble a "complete" factory sample set. The standard factory sample box we do offer includes approximately 192 samples (representative of KOG's most popular colors), including opalescent combinations, streakies, opalumes and all available patterns. *Indicates that the color can not be master matched.
Pick-up Policy
