[QUOTE="Car 54, post: 239107, member: 85"] Yamamoto's book on Metal Ceramics is still a excellent foundation book of metals and ceramics. Even though much of what he did was with a translucent porcelain overlay, in which you can use to much and lower the value, it's still a excellent book if you can get your hands on one. Maybe that is why you were taught to mix trans with Inc, to help get the translucent effect while maintaining some "opacity" to keep from graying out. Part of the reason for Shofu developing the opal porcelains was to try to make it easier to get the translucent inc effect without lowering the value, as well as for the opal effect. They still mentioned not to use it in some situations, like if the inc edge was going to be really thin, or that a metal lingual or occlusal may lower the value (my books at home, so I can't look it up).
