Rose Gold Vinyl??

I'm on the hunt for a shiny Rose Gold vinyl to be die-cut into stickers....can be die-cut film or wrap film. As rose gold continues to increase in popularity, we are getting more and more requests. I figured there has to be some off-brand out there somewhere that makes it by now....but no luck in my own searches.

ive also thought about printing pink to gold shiny vinyl? But for such a small initial order it wouldn't be worth the experiment time.

Are you looking for a specific type of gold vinyl (ie. Hammered, turned, metallic, etc.)?

I print on gold with my latex to make blues and greens... Pink should be possible too.

If you are looking for a mirror gold with a "Red-ish" or pink tint, I think the only thing available is #MM400 Bright Copper (Polyester) from Promark®, which is or was a product of Performance Sign Products in Seattle. I'm not sure if they still exist or not. You also might look into what R-Tape® VINYL efx™ currently offers in their "Chrome" line. If the demand is growing as you say, print you own to match your tone requirements and stock it for future use.

I wonder if laminating the gold with a transparent vinyl if it would come out that color.

Why would you want to print on gold when you can print your own gold, and most any other color, on silver? Moreover, with silver you get a white point that's at least in the same galaxy as white. With gold, not so much.

Because to get a rose gold color it would be easier to start with a gold base verses a silver base.... its actually a super simple process on a gold vinyl.

Here is an example of what we did for a aqua gold.

Just as easy, if not easier, to do on silver. Remember that white point? I've been printing gold leaf in all of it's variations and tints on silver for years. Try it some time, you might be surprised.

Either method works so its up to the person printing.

We just start with a base that is most like the finished look and tweak from there. With the NIX sensor we just got it make the process much faster since we can measure the base make up.

not premade no... I looked through 9 specialty catalogs I have and none of them have Rose.

Just print the new Pantone Rose Quartz over Gold or Silver Vinyl and be done with it. 13-1520 is the Pantone, RGB 247, 202, 201
