Abstract
The present subject matter describes imprinting a logo on a substrate. In an example implementation, a first layer is coated on the substrate to level surface irregularities on the substrate. The first layer is a thermally cured layer. A hot foil imprint of the logo is formed on the first layer. A second layer is coated on the hot foil imprint, where the second layer is a thermally cured transparent layer. A third layer is coated on the second layer, where the third layer is an ultra-violet (UV) cured transparent layer.
Claims15
A method of imprinting a logo on a substrate, comprising:
- coating a first layer on the substrate to level surface irregularities on the substrate, the first layer being a thermally cured layer;
- forming a hot foil imprint of the logo on the first layer;
- coating a second layer on the hot foil imprint, the second layer being a thermally cured transparent layer;
- and
- coating a third layer on the second layer, the third layer being an ultra-violet (UV) cured transparent layer.
An enclosure of a device, comprising:
- a thermally cured layer coated on a surface of the enclosure to level irregularities on the surface;
- a hot foil logo formed on the thermally cured layer;
- a thermally cured transparent layer coated on the hot foil logo;
- and
- an ultra-violet (UV) cured transparent layer coated on the thermally G red transparent layer.
A device having an enclosure comprising:
- a primer layer coated on a surface of the enclosure;
- a thermally cured layer coated on the primer layer to level irregularities on the surface;
- a hot foil logo embossed on the thermally cured layer through hot oil stamping of a metallic foil;
- and
- a thermally red transparent layer coated on the hot foil logo, the thermally cured transparent layer being coated with an ultra-violet (UV) cured transparent layer, wherein the thermally cured transparent layer is to bind the hot foil logo with the UV cured transparent layer.
