I've searched, haven't really found either of these... looking for the main reflective color to be red and also silver. I've seen and used a DA color before that had red or cherry in the name I think but the effect shown on the order preview was more achieved by backing the dichro with a red color. thanks

not sure on the red. i've found the DA Diamond Tical to have a pretty silvery look to it. It also had a light blue if i remember correctly, but mostly silvery when i used it. i wasn't a big fan of it actually though. kinda reminded me of burnt dichro too much. good luck.

Red Silver Blue, shows red and silver when it transmits light through the glass, and reflects blue color when backed. And its a great blue, my favorite bright blue that can take a beating. Starship has a great red if you cut it correctly along the burgundy/orange area, and you can bring out the red tones by placing white and red colors along side the dichro. Its hard to achieve a red when you are backing it with cobalt blue because they are opposite colors, so back it in black or something else. Most that are supposed to look silver didn't perform as well for me in most normal applications.
