Introducing, the International Coatings 7500 Mixing Series! This is a color matching system, that creates over 50 shades of custom Pantone colors. The kit includes 19 non-phthalate colors for automatic printing and manual screen printers.
Long Description: This system is International Coatings’ newly updated and formulated technology, that allows you, the screen printer, to create virtually any Pantone color available. Now you no longer have to turn down a job because a specific color is unavailable to you, you can create it yourself, in any amount! This approach is more economical and space-saving, since you dont have to keep hundreds of colors in stock at all times. You can also upsell your products by advertising that you create custom colors and inks. By using the International Coatings’ UltraMix Pantone color matching software, you can create over 50 shades of special or standard colors.
The software is available to download online, for use on your desktop, smartphone, or tablet. The app will prompt you to create an account, allowing you to have a personal account thats saves formulas, and even calculates costs.
The mixing system is available in two formats: ready-for-use and pigments. The ready-for-use color system means you can use it right out of the container. It is easy to mix and ready for your screen. Great for smaller shops and beginners. The pigment system needs to be mixed with a base, but it can be any type of base, including special effects and blowout base. The pigments have to be measured very precisely, but allow you to create a much broader range of colors and styles.
Each system comes with 9 standard colors and 9 fluorescents, equalling an 18 color set. The RFU system includes a mixing white base, and the pigment system includes a color concentrate base.
