Primary Conjugated antibodies against CD35 and CD55

Dear group, I am trying to setup assays of direct fluorescent staining
of RBCs for CD35 and CD55. All the primary conjugated antibodies I have
tried for these antigens that are commercially available give a very dim
response, especially for CD35 which is known to have low expression on
RBCs. I have had good results using indirect fluorescence using a
secondary anti-mouse but this would preclude multicolor analysis, hence
we would like to switch to direct fluorescence. Any suggestions as to
which antibodies I could use or the approach?

Thank you in advance for your assistance.
