Just imagine the possibilities with the Roscolux Opal Tough Frost, a 20x24" sheet of light diffusing material that is lighter than its 100-103 counterparts. This high-quality diffuser is perfect for HMI, CID, and CSI light sources, subtly softening the beam while maintaining superior light transmission.
As part of Rosco's premier Roscolux range, this product is crafted with a unique tri-extrusion process that ensures maximum durability under hot theatrical lights. This process combines three discrete layers, sealing the colored layer between two microscopically thin layers of clear film. This innovative design minimizes dye migration, effectively extending the lifespan of the product.
Known as "Supergel" overseas, Roscolux is the most widely used filter range globally, thanks to its superior quality and versatility. The Roscolux Opal Tough Frost is composed of two types of plastic, with over 65% of the product made from co-extruded polycarbonate plastic. The remaining portion is deep dyed polyester, offering a robust and durable solution for your lighting needs.
Unlike ordinary color filters that are manufactured by surface coating clear polyester plastic film, Roscolux's color is not merely painted onto the surface. This unique manufacturing process ensures that the dye is resistant to heat and physical abrasion, reducing the risk of fading and scratching.
The Roscolux Opal Tough Frost is available in sheets of 20in. X 24in. (50cm x 61cm), making it an ideal size for a variety of lighting setups. For larger requirements, the Cinelux line of filters is available in rolls of 48in. X 25ft. (122cm x 7.62m).
Experience the difference with the Roscolux Opal Tough Frost, a durable, effective, and easy-to-use solution for all your light diffusing needs in photography and film production.
