Question 1

What is the difference between this set and gp6102a set? i'm looking to purchase the most current set.

Accepted Answer

The latest version of the Formula Guide is model GP1601A and the latest model of the Color Bridge set is GP6102A.  The Formula Guide has all of the Pantone solid or spot colors printed on coated and uncoated stock.  The Formula Guide includes the mixing formula for each color.  The Color Bridge has the same Pantone solid or spot colors as the Formula Guide and these are located on the left hand side of each page.  Next to these Pantone colors on the right hand side of each page are the closest process match and the CMYK screen tint percentages.  This is helpful if you are using a 4-color printer.  The Color Bridge also includes the RGB and HTML values for solid colors.  This enables viewing consistency across different monitors and web pages.

Question 4

I started designing and having enamel pins made. the manufacturer is in china. is this the best pantone color guide for enamel pins??

Accepted Answer

This was the kind to buy via other pin makers posts. The other factor was trying to get a current or close to current year version. If you buy an older version the information may not match up/ be up to date anymore. I checked other pin makers posts to see what they said heathery used. I believe they talked about the coated formula guide.
