RE: Copy of: Re: Iron reds/Randy's Red

Did anyone ever reply to the question of how much crocus martis should be
added to Randy's Red to enhance the red. If so, I missed it and would
really appreciate if it could be posted again. We use Randy's in our
studio, but although we get a fair amount of rust red on the inside, the
outside can often be quite dull. Would love to be able to get more red.
Thanks in advance.

Veena: You might be having e-mail problems because you must not have gotten
the e-mail I sent to you privately. Use half crocus martis and half RIO in
Randy's Red. So for instance, if the recipe calls for 80 grams of RIO, use
40 crocus and 40 RIO. Good luck, Barbara
