Dear Valued Glass Professional,
Beginning January 1, 2010, per Washington State Senate Bill 6173, the requirements for wholesale purchasing in Washington State has changed. You may already have received your new Reseller Permit informing you of these changes.
MTC (Multistate Tax Commission) Audit Program
Out of State Customers that ship in the following states are members of the MTC Audit Program & should be taxed if we don’t either Resale Certificate or Multi-State Tax Exemption Certificate:
Alabama Arkansas Colorado Washington DC Georgia Hawaii Idaho Illinois Kansas Kentucky Michigan Minnesota New Jersey North Dakota Tennessee Utah Washington Wisconsin
Gaffer Glass USA is required by law to collect a paper or electronic copy of your new Reseller Permit to exempt your purchases from Washington State sales tax. It is our goal to help make the processes as efficient and streamlined as possible for our retail and wholesaler purchasers alike.
If you have not yet provided Gaffer Glass USA with your new Reseller Permit, please fax, email or mail your copy to us prior to your next purchase.
Previous Resale Certificates and Exemption Letters will no longer be valid after January 1, 2010 and those customers without documentation are subject to pay sales taxes on purchases.
If you do not believe you are subject to pay sales tax for your purchases with Gaffer Glass USA, and are without a state issued Reseller Permit, we will require you to provide us with a completed copy of the Multi-State Tax Exemption Certificate. This can be found online through the Washington State Department of Revenue website: dor.wa.gov .
We thank you for your continued patronage and look forward to providing you with the ultimate products and service from Gaffer Glass USA.
Sincerely,
Hallynd D. Hall

NEW COLORS:
PHIL’S GREY G-194 & ALABASTER G-190
G-194 Phil's Grey
G-190 Alabaster
Gaffer Glass has recently released two new colors: Phil’s Grey G-194 and Alabaster G-190. Phil’s Grey is named after a much beloved employee who tragically passed away a couple of years ago. He once made this light opal grey by mistake and it has been difficult to reproduce until now. This is a soft neutral grey similar to an elephant grey.
We are particularly proud of our new Alabaster G-190. This is an opaline with that delicate milky opalescence a lá Lalique, with the characteristic play of reddish tones with transmitted light. For those that find Opal White G-101 or Enamel White G-100 too opaque and soulless, G-190 might be just what you are looking for.
Many of you will have tried Reichenbach’s or Kugler’s R 60 or K 60 Opaline. Both are virtually identical examples of a phosphate based opal. They both suffer badly from what we call “heat rings” in blown ware- ie bands of wildly varying opacity depending on the thermal history of the glass piece.
Gaffer’s new Alabaster uses the same basic phosphate system, but Gaffer has worked hard to tweak the recipe so that it does not opacify to varying degrees of density depending on heat treatment. A blown cylinder or bowl for instance will be even in opacity from lip to foot.
