Colour mixing guides take the mystery and chemistry out of the process to provide you with easy mixes giving you the colours you want. O
Colour theory is included. It uses widely available colours. When you need spot-on, repeatable colours, you’ll find this book essential. It’s
easy to use with very clear instructions
