Does anyone know anything about this term "rivelino"? TIA

According to my client, "El ***Rivelino*** consiste en poner dos, o más, tintas diferentes a la vez al mismo tintero de la máquina de imprimir, entonces se crea un degradado único e irrepetible en cada hoja impresa .... es muy especial ...

Diseño del packaging para la bobina de Cromosoma 13. Hicimos un poster con dos caras bien diferenciadas: una con el contenido técnico –código– del dvd y la otra con la radiografía del autor. Este es un trabajo donde la producción tiene un valor excepcional: impreso en Gráficas Orient de Barcelona, conseguimos mezclar tintas oro y plata en un ***rivelino*** excelente, imprimiendo sobre papel offset de alta calidad de color negro.

Thanks a lot. I checked with the client and it turns out that "rivelino" is the closely related "rainbow fountain" but I was drawing a blank until you pointed me in the right direction!
