Spot Printed Perspex

Posted by: Rachel Walker on: 04/11/2016

printed perspex

Sometimes, printing on foamex or foamcore just won’t cut it. If you’re looking for a print or a sign that’s going to catch the eye of any passer-by, a Perspex or acrylic print is the way to go.

Without the white ink, colours printed on a clear surface would look more like a stain glass window than a sharp and solid print. Being able ...

wall paper printing

We were requested to visit Our Lady’s school in Blackley where they had a large wall within the premises that had recently been re-painted white. The request was made that a religious graphic was placed on the wall. An image was given to ourselves to look at as a basis to work from. We used this image to create a similar design changing the words that were coming out of the hand. In order to make the wallpaper in keeping with the other graphics we have done for the school we used the same cross design within the hand.

We obtained ...
