Foil Widths
Width Uses
5/32 Used on thin glass or for other specialty applications. Barely covers the edge of average Sheet Glass.
3/16 Common to use for those wanting fine lead joints with average Sheet Glass. Does not work well for uneven/highly textured average Sheet Glass.
7/32 Most common and popular size. Works well for most glass and textures.
1/4 Common beginner size due to how easy it is to work with. Looks more like Came when used. Works for almost all average Sheet Glass.
5/16 and larger Not commonly used outside of super wide lead lines, decorative foiling or for foiling thick/heavily textured glass as the extra can be easily trimmed back when custom sized foil is needed.
