Title: Underbase Glitter?
Post by: MrBreeze on November 20, 2012, 05:14:31 PM

I've got a 3 color print on black which includes white and glitter silver.  Would you underbase the glitter with white to increase the pop of the glitter.?

I would.  It does make a difference.  I printed shimmer for the first time this summer.  When I was doing a test print I did one with underbase and one without.  The one with underbase looked 100 times better.
