FCZ 3L2.5 Opinion

How can I go about matching this shade with what I have to work with?
The moment I have just enough yellow and beige the whole things too damn dark.
Advice?

Pink will change the value if your trying to lighten the cr.

there is already, SO MUCH pink in the ZIRC Pre Sintered Stain...

If you don't have the time to remill, do a buccal cutback/water-spray handpiece and layer two shades lighter in dentin..... May need to fire a Regerneration firing to be on the safe side..... 500-1000c 100c rate..no vac, 15 min. hold

Totally forgot......fire to 1000 c hold for 10-15 minutes no vac... ....this will lighten the shade ... I guess it burns off some of the sintered coloring ......If this doesn't work, try the cutback,,, and glaze higher... I've learned the more you fire fcz, the lighter it gets.......May not be true for all fcz, but true on Bruxzir....
If its real dark, your screwed..

What a great idea, i dunno why i didnt think of that. I remember about a year ago staining some Zirc framework way too dark. I threw it back in the sinter over overnight with the rest of the copings milled that day. Came in in the morning to find the bridge, much much lighter.
THX charles...
