Discharge print, preflight color sequence advice
squeegee:
So we're finally printing this discharge design today (9 colors), we mixed up the colors Friday and ran tests on the colors. I have to say Tony's advice about starting with primary colors first and then creating secondary colors by mixing has been the most helpful tip of all. Once you get to a tertiary mixes, getting a vibrant color is much harder. In the sericol system we are using there are "Pantone Formulas" but they are really just suggestions, most of the 3 primary formulas look like crap and we ended up formulating with 1 or 2 primaries and then tinting/shading with white or black.
Hoping to get away with 1 stroke per color wow. I'll post a picture of the final print.
Just wanted to say thanks again to everyone for the advice and hope you are not working like me on this holiday.
