Specifically on aluminum cans? I'm wanting to design a neon pink can (PMS 806C) but can't find any images or references to this being done before, and how good or bad neons will translate onto a can. I don't want them to look muddy or faded. I want them to be like, blinding. Has anyone ever used neon inks on cans before? I work with Crown and they say they don't have any samples to send me unfortunately. I just want to know if it'll look bad before I go designing the whole thing, only to get a pilot can and have it look like garbage.

If anyone's got pictures or advice I'd greatly appreciate it!

If you already have a white base on the can I see no aditional problem to reproduce the desired PMS color.

I had one project printed on metal, and once the metal is covered with the white the color responds pretty much like coated paper.

If the inks used are the correct type for the metal they should be ok.

There is a chance it will also have a varnish that will make the colors pop a bit more.
