What is your preference for COLORS & MATERIALS?

most colours to me are numbers on a grid ClE-Lab.
To me they were all numbers in the Pantone Matching System.

Our customers before I retired would use the various Pantone systems when they interfaced with the sales department to give me a heads up for basecoat and ink suggestions, I had to determine for myself from existing basecoats, hundreds which was most appropriate and then put together an ink which was translucent giving to overall colour that the customer desired. Near the end a lot of wood grains. needed a good eye for colour as the overall colour of the final print including clearcoat was done visually. extremely difficult no competitors international or local. the final colour was a synergy of base ink and clear. When my wife could not tell a real wood grain garage door from the faux in the store, I knew we had made it. Even the faux rust panel in the sales department fooled customers thinking it was an actual rusted piece of metal.my understudy recently got promoted to manager, I think we could match anything. any substrate, treatment, resin system or clearcoat.
