Does anyone have a source for Metallic Gold or Silver ink at a decent price? |

Union Shimmer Gold and Silver are good for plastisol
For WAterbased inks: get a clear ink designed for metallics and then add LBs of metallic particles that most suppliers sell.
For solvent: do the same as for waterbased, but use a solvent clean for metallics.
Powders run about $25 a pound here in Canada, and clears depend on what ink brand you get.
what classifies as cheap? |

Well, I found a site that sells pints for $18, and quarts for $25. It seemed a little high, but I may be wrong.
I guess I should've asked, does anyone have any good sites to buy plastisol from in general. |

any distributor that sells Union, Wilflex, One Stroke, Rutland, QCM etc . . hte price difference between distributors comes out to less than one cent per print. Plastisol is hella cheap . . |
