Tangerine Dream is a cadmium based opaque orange that can thank its bright appearance to the richness of the yellow present. Tangerine Dream does not like reducing atmospheres. RO Jones says, "This color is pure. What you see is what you get. If you work it in a reducing flame its orange and creamy, if you work it in an oxidizing flame its orange and creamy. It comes back a bright citrus orange every time. Coiled up its near seamless, looks great in tube pulls, line work is a breeze."
