PANTONE COLOR- MISSING

Petra,

May I suggest a "better" way to get a nice silver?

Print on Chrome BOPP and use a white plate (primer plate) where the chrome is not to be seen. 

The reason is, any metallic ink is:

1. hard to find someone who has it in stock (meaning you might have to pay for a minimum quantity out of your on pocket)

2. expensive as heck

3. can be very toxic

Also,

4. You can "tint" the chrome with color so you can have multiple chrome/silver/metallic colors on one piece without having to build extra PMS plates. Think blue lightning...

5. The only other way I know to put silver down is with silver "leaf" or a hot/cold stamp process. This process is top of the line, but requires an entire second printer (Industrial Press). Adding another process = prep hours = $$$$.

Feel free to answer with questions about how to prepare that kind of file if needed.
