Control Panel overlay - recommended printing options?
« on: September 16, 2008, 11:25:14 pm »
I decided to go with a printed control panel overlay after all. Before I go the print shop for some quotes, I thought I should ask: what kind of paper should I get it printed on?

I've attach a png of the CPO for feedback, as well. I'd rather learn I did something boneheaded now, than after I've paid money for it. :)

Go to www.mamemarquees.com and have it printed there. It's a tough polycarbonite with a sticky back and it'll look great.

Regarding the polycarbonate, it doesn't sound like it needs lexan or acrylic overtop. Is that the case?

True. It's very durable.

ratzz, are you getiing yours printed on sign writers vinyl? If so I presume you are planning on protecting it with a plexi/polycarb sheet?
