Is overlaid silkscreen allowed?

Post by UTscott »

I'd like to have a two color, overlaid silkscreen in which white boxes are silkscreened and black text is silkscreened on top of the white boxes (see attached image). To achieve this, the white would need to be silkscreened before the black. Is it possible to specify the order in which the silkscreening should occur? Does protocase just handle this and ensures the final product will look like the model in protocase designer? Or, should overlaid silkscreen be avoided all together?

Thanks.

It is possible to silkscreen over colors. What would need to happen is that when we silkscreen the black over the white, we would need to have a bit of a bleed to ensure that it appears the way you would like. If you wish to provide us with the order in which the silkscreen would occur, mention it when you submit your order. If not, we will ensure that it is in the correct order. You will receive a proof of the silkscreen to approve before it is sent to production.
