Gentlemen, I believe that you do not want to use screen printing on
plastic....it typically does not produce a crisp image. You want to locate a "pad
printer". Pad printing utilizes a cone shaped, foam "ball" to print images. This is
what is used on watch dials and instruments in general. Perhaps your screen
printer is very good....but most printing of this type is done by "Pad
Printing" :).......Cheers from Indy.
