And contrary to what some people belive, mixing white with any other colour that isnt white, results in a darker colour.... even if the effect is to make the darker colour 'lighter'. (which it does...)
Spoken like someone who has never played around with the dye combinations in GW - they don't always follow typical color rules! FYI, adding silver dye to any combination tends to make a lighter color than the original.
As for white dyes, a typical combination is silver + yellow + silver (in that order). Some armors look to be more truly white with a third silver added to the mix, and sometimes a dye remover works better in place of the yellow dye. I've had varying success with these depending on the armor, but I haven't tried it on any mesmer armor, so I couldn't say about that speciifically. In my experience, monk armor and some ranger armor have responded the best to "white" treatment. Hope this helps!
