    Hello, 

    Does anyone have a suggestion for a good shade of gold ink (pref. a rubber base)…I am looking for a shade that prints more antique-y than yellow.  Will primarily be used on cotton stock, so I don’t expect it to retain much metallic…I just don’t want to order ‘gold’ ink and have it be that bright, yellow gold. 

    Thanks in advance for your help!

    I dont think I have ever seen any gold metallic ink in rubber based. I have some odd really old gold powder but I have no idea if its still for sale anywhere, nor do I know how use them. But there are several shades in oil based.. I dont have any but I have silver but its more grey than silver but its good for opaqueness.
