Abstract:
A method is provided for using a pad printing device to decorate a base surface with an image. Initially the form of the image is printed on the base surface using a base coat material which has a sufficiently high adhesion with the base surface. An ink image is then printed in registry with the base coat image using an ink which has a sufficiently high adhesion to the base coat material. The image is then printed in registry with the ink image using a top coat material which has a sufficiently high adhesion to the ink. Because each layer of material has a sufficiently high adhesion to the adjacent material, the resulting decorative label has a high adhesion to the base surface.
