Admiral:
I need 3 poster inks pantone matched, anyone know where I can get them from? Right now we have speedball acrylic inks but that's it.

why not just custom make it? we did it all the time.

StuJohnston:
Just to clarify, you can print posters, but want someone else to print these for you? Or would you like advice on an ink system? If so, TW has a few waterbased solutions. Having a CMS on hand can be nice. Another option is to ask your local supplier if they do color matching. The problem with that is they tend to want to do it in large batches.

If you want someone else to print for you, send me a PM.

Admiral:
we plan on printing them, we have done posters before with speedball ink

reason I was trying not to mix them ourselves is we would need to order 8-10 different inks, a few being gallons and then mix, would be nice if we could just get 2 quarts - 1 gallon of each of the colors we need

TW-5500 is what I was looking into right now, from Nazdar.

ZooCity:
TW 5500 is from TW graphics.  My ink of choice for flatstock.  We match by eye.  They offer a set of pure pigment concentrates for this but no formula guide.  I love mixing by gut and by eye so that's fine for us but yeah, if you are needing to match to PMS constantly you need a formula guide so, if that's the case, look into a similar product form Nazdar or someone with a formula system.

I can't remember if TW will mix PMS for you, they might, I would call and ask, really great folks there.
