Short Run Durable Decal Color Choices.
Our standard short run durable decal printing colors are shown to the left. If these colors aren't what you need, please contact CustomerCare for help.
When selecting transparent polyester as your material, we automatically add white as a base printing color.
Durable decal printing colors come from the Pantone Matching System, or PMS. PMS is a "solid-color" matching system, used primarily for specifying second or third colors in printing durable decals - meaning colors in addition to black, (although, obviously, one can certainly print a one-color piece using a PMS color and no black all). We keep an array of base Pantone inks in our printing shop, such as Warm Red, Rubine Red, Green, Yellow, Reflex Blue, and Violet. Most PMS colors have a "receipe" that our print shop follows to achieve the desired hard hat decal color. The base durable decal colors, along with black and white, are combined in certain proportions within our print shop to achieve other PMS colors.
If it is very important to match a certain PMS color on your durable decals, such as when a corporate logo color is used, please contact CustomerCare so they can discuss your durable decal color needs with our specialist. This will help ensure a close match.
