Underbase Glitter?
« 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.?
If it's so easy, you do it.

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.

This is glitter not metallic.
