Title: What are folks using/going to use as Union's Tru-Tone is discontinued?
Post by: Sbrem on October 03, 2022, 01:43:26 PM

We are low on the Tru-Tone Process Yellow, and found to our surprise that it's being discontinued, damn. Any suggestions for replacing the Tru-Tone series from another brand? We've been using it since it was released...

Did Union Ink say what they are replacing it with?, I've used a triple blend yellow process ink in the place of my true tone sometime back when I couldn't get my hands on some yellow, worked fine, and I learn that the process black ink is a very thin version of black ink nothing special. I got the triple blend from River City Supply, it could be just me but I think the colors pop more with the triple blend process ink.

They'll probably be replaced with an Infinite FX version of the Tru-Tones, though, yeah? Not that it'll be guaranteed to be a 1:1 replacement, but I'm seeing availability of the Infinite FX process colors on Grimco's website.
