Here at Inkcups Now we often get special orders for Top Secret projects. That’s all we can say at the moment. We don’t want to get into trouble…

Both items were pad printed with 3 different colors using our very own ICN-150. Paul began by etching the artwork onto a plate using the Cobalt 1000 while Pete mixed up the colors in the ink lab. After pouring the ink into the cups, Paul set them up on the plates. The choice of pads is very important as it needs to have the correct shape, size, and durometer for each part.
