I have a couple of customers who keep insisting I figure out how to put their multi-colored logos on the plastic ID plates I make them. Some logos are fine in black & white, but they want color anyway. One logo I'm working with has a solid dark-to-light blue shaded shape, which to now I've just tool engraved an outline of and painted that blue. Another logo has 3 grays and a red, I'm not attempting to paint all that...
yada yada... anyway, I know there's ways to imprint these, like sublimation (no) and screen printing (no), but I'm not familiar with other methods or their names. A watch company customer of mine has some sort of small machine that they print logos on watch faces with. I don't know if it's a form of sublimation or not? The machine that does it fits on a desk top, it's not big, and it does everything itself. I'm not sure I like the results I've seen from it, like, the edges of lettering and graphics didn't seem all too sharp or crisp. But what I saw was just one of their practice pieces.
So, what am I looking for, that will place colored text and graphics on Rowmark and other materials? I need to either find a machine to do this, or find someplace that can do some for me...
