What chip colors can be matched with a faux shaped inlay?
As long as we have a sample chip in-hand to work with, we can match pretty much any color -- EXCEPT colors that are fluorescent.
Colors such as those in Paulson's fluorescent palette (see list below) or CPC/ASM DayGlo colors, are outside the range of colors that can be reproduced using CMYK inks. This is true not only for our printing equipment, but also for any printing equipment that uses a CMYK ink set.
It's not a matter of it being difficult or tricky to match colors such as these. It is simply not possible to create certain colors with those inks.
Paulson colors that cannot be matched include:
Of course, we can print shades of color that are "somewhat close" to those, e.g. a shade of green that isn't too far off Day Green, but it will never be a near-perfect match. The difference between a printed color and the chip color will always be noticeable.
