If an artisan wants to use a new colour what is the most responsible method?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: First test the colour on a small sample
Testing a new colour on a small sample helps the artisan check its final shade, adhesion to the fabric or surface, spread, and durability. It reduces the risk of spoiling the full order and facing customer complaints. Applying it directly to the whole order may seem quicker, but it carries a much greater risk of loss. Exam tip: link trial testing of a new material or technique with quality control.
