Experimenting with liquid silver metallic

[myseps]

I'm testing out some new ink samples we got today.  "Liquid silver metallic".
It looks very similar to silver foil.
In this sample I tried putting gel underneath the silver to raise up the ink a bit.

6 colors

No base
1. grey
2. red
3. tan
4. brown
5. gel
6. liquid silver
no black

cool stuff but after a few washes it looks more battleship grey than metalic

Who makes the ink?
What if you put the jel ON TOP of th silver to "protect it" from the laundry?

Thanks for any response in advance.

BTW - the art is FANTASTIC - with or without foil or liquid metal - in my humble opinion

We use Wilflexes liquid silver with good results. Thats some cool art.

Yep, got to agree, that art is really interesting to look at.  Overall it has more of a gold look to it, I guess I'm not seeing so much effect from the liquid silver, but I'm sure in person it's more impressive.

Nice.
