I read this document (thanks Paul!) and it looks like a good place to start. I will go with the 1/3 LLK + 2/3 base option for the smooooth.
Not being able to see a tone dot is the goal as well. The diluted LC and careful use of LM seems right.
I have read of people keeping a syringe for each ink to agitate when needed, not so sure agitating a loaded 3800 is safe.

I messed with (and up) a few tries with B&W so not a newbie. Vastly inexperienced and dangerous maybe, but not a newbie :)

Thanks for your response and care!
