SILKSCREENING
SUBLIMATING
HAND PAINTING

Creativity knows no limits in our printing department. We mix our own colors. We make our own screens. We sublimate, silkscreen and hand paint all our tops in house.

Sublimation is a process of baking the art into the top material. Ink is embedded into the top material fusing the two together. Sublimation is a digital four-color process that allows us to create continuous tones similar to a painting or photograph.

Silk screening is a process of layering color on top of color, one coat at a time. We screen the art on the underside of our clear top sheets. This protects the ink from any scratching.  We separate the layers of colors, mix the inks and pull one color at a time. This process allows us to leave windows open to the core, create one-of-a-kind color ways, and produce graphics with rich, saturated color.

Hand painting is by far the most exclusive process that we offer. We can hand paint our top sheets because we do them ourselves—in house. You can’t do that if your boards are produced overseas. We start with the same process as silk screening. Then we grab our brushes and mix up our inks. We paint underneath our top sheets— which means that we paint backwards—with brushes rather than pulling ink through screens with squeegees. The result yields a top sheet unlike any other produced. You won’t find two of the same. Hand painted top sheets are truly original.
