DIY Light Magenta

[telv]

I seem to remember a post which asked if it was possible to "water down" pigment ink magenta to make light magenta. Presumably, this would require a mixture of glycerine and water, possibly with some Photo-Flo. Does anyone know the proportions? Thanks

My thanks to The Hat who must have an encyclopaedic memory - or is much more adept than I am at getting the search engine to find what he wants!!

They were interesting posts. It seems that the light inks are no more expensive to buy than making your own with Optimizer, so no point really unless, that is, we know exactly what GO is made of and can make that as well!
