Title: Matsui discharge pantone matching
Post by: IntegrityShirts on November 20, 2015, 09:29:44 AM

I use the little software widget. But it doesn't break down the DC bases and whites, but it does have clear, white, and medium opacity (301M) values.  The 301M is the one that throws me off. What do I use for that value if mixing discharge inks? I have been using clear DC base for the 301C and 301M values but I'm not sure if that's right?

On another note. Anyone have a good formula for a DARK maroon dc mix? I can't seem to get anything other than a fugly brown or regular red/dark red.

10% dc white plus 90% base to make up for the 301M.
