The Power of Fifth Colours
If you know your way around the basic printing colors which are CMYK, then you might be interested in learning about the power of fifth colors in printing. These include clear, white, and neon ink and each one has an amazing and varying impact on how your prints turn out when they are added to the mix.
Having trouble choosing which fifth ink you might need? This all depends on what your visual goal is for your prints. See how each ink can benefit your print in their own unique way below!
Clear Ink Process
Can clear ink really make a difference on your prints? Absolutely, the question to ask is how? Applying clear toner to an otherwise flat color print has the ability to add depth and eye-catching clarity to your final prints, giving them a three-dimensional edge.
Adding clear toner is also an effective way to add a touch of elegance and class to your marketing pieces! Never underestimate the tasteful element that clear ink can add to your branding message.
Clear Ink Advantages
Neon Yellow
Our neon yellow ink option is an excellent solution to make your prints more bright and striking! Neon yellow is a hallmark for safety applications, packaging, or highlighting promotions and is especially effective in catching visual attention due to its luminosity.
If you’re looking to get blinding but brand-effective prints for your marketing plan or simply need some safety signages to caution passer-byers of potential hazards, then neon yellow is the ink for you.
Neon Pink
If you’re looking for a bold but tasteful pop to your prints, then our neon pink ink option just might be exactly what you need. Neon pink is especially popular in all things trendy such as fashion, cosmetics, and beauty, but is also an excellent solution for marketing other products due to its vibrant color.
Another great aspect of our neon palette is it becomes reflective when placed under UV light, this works for both neon pink AND yellow!
White Ink Process
If there’s one color that’s taken for granted in the printing world, it’s definitely white ink! Having white ink process applied on your prints can actually make a huge difference when it comes to producing brightly colored logos and images onto dark or dull colored stock.
This is a great solution when printing on clear, black, or dark card stocks and stickers as it assures that each artwork is represented in it’s fullest color and brightness.
Unlike neon ink, white ink can be added to any mix of colors to make them really pop out and shout the message your brand brings.
