I missed Justin's recent group buy for his 80mm acrylic custom dealer buttons. Now I'm getting my design ready for the next one.
I designed a 80mm custom Kill Button. Can an experienced designer or @justincarothers please tell me if these colors below are good to use, specifically if the CMYK values for each color will print well? Do I need to change any CMYK values?
I made this already as a 60mm ceramic button at BrProPoker and they advised me to use these colors, which turned out great. But I am a little worried if these CMYK values will still work for Justin's acrylic buttons since the print media is different. (especially the black values which is a lot of ink (overloading the ink?) but was recommended by BrPro.)
I have the PDF file (vector graphic) ready to go with CMYK values in them. So, hopefully PDF with CMYK is what Justin needs.
Thanks for any help.

Element | CMYK values | Purpose / desired effect |
|---|---|---|
| Hazard Red | 2, 98, 95, 0 | Brightest red for "hazard" pop. (adjusted from 0, 100, 100, 0 which gave out of gamut warning in Krita) |
| Rich Black | 92, 88, 88, 99 | Deepest, darkest black desired. I was originally planning to use 69, 64, 61, 56, but BrPro said that would look lighter/greyer, not darkest. They recommended the 92, 88, 88, 99. |
| Text Fill | 0, 4, 12, 0 | Crisp, bright offwhite. |
