    New Sil color

    I want to come out with a new sil, but having some trouble coming up with a cool color. I was thinking that Gold and Silver have never really been done before. So what do you think, would you make a gold or silver tarp? It sounds cool and all the subdued colors are really done to death. Does anyone have any ideas for colors that aren't already out and people would want?

    I suspect the gold would come out looking not all that gold and the silver would look grey.

    I love purple and orange!

    if you come out with tie dye, I think I could get the wife into a hammock under it.

    I think the gold could work, maybe with a merragold or daisy yellow undertone to keep it from looking shiny and gaudy

    always liked that turquoise mint green retro color

    or something half as light as the robins egg more a light sky blue ? that in a tarp could be nice only if one does not mind being seen
    but light on gloomy days and reflecting a bit on bright days

    I have a BIAS Weight Weenie single layer that looks great in silver (no longer made). A matching tarp would be great.
