Metallic Clear

Just curious, has the metallic clear ink been used on anything yet?
I wanted to do a tonal thing in the background of something I'm working on . . .

do you mean like...glue? do you want threadless to print with glue?

i'm not sure if this is what you mean, but this design uses a high-density clear ink:

All That's Good - Threadless, Best T-shirts Ever

not easily seen in the pictures, but there is a clear ink over the white ink on the lettering that sorta pops off the shirt and is almost sticky to the touch.

I don't know what I mean, its in the specialty printing pdf that is in the submission kit

I wanted something like varnish - i think the one iDan put up may be it.

Does "How to be Smart" use metallic clear? The pyramid is gold but glittery but really smooth so it's not like foil on "Ways of Making you Talk" and not like the glitter ink on "Key for everything" but kind of a cross between the two.

I have quite a few sitting around half finished.

At least 4 are 75% done. . .

Thanks Squatter, I'll take a look at those two .

Sorry, It's called "Secrets of Mensa" and the info for it says sparkly shimmer ink, so I guess not.
