Would someone have a gloss/cone 9/oxidation "Emerald Green" recipe that they
would be willing to share.
Thanks in advance

I have tried tests of Emerald Green with Luguna, Murray's and 3134. Luguna
and Murrays are similiar for me. The 3134 is more a lighter dark green with
more of a teal color to it. This teal color with midnight blue (was in one
of the magaizines a while back) looks really good.

Just getting going on further testeing. Hope this helps
