Professional Finish

Be it a corporate event, sports competition, school award ceremony or other special occasion, we can ensure you get the perfect award you need with a professional finish. Send us your designs or opt for our full service including design right to product completion. 

 

RESIN DOMING

We can resin dome your creations for additional visual effect and long-lasting protection. Doming is the process of adding a clear, non-yellowing resin to your decal to make a 'dome' or bubble over it. This has a slight magnification effect, catches light better and protects your decal from weather and UV light. The end result is stunning.
