Pad printing is a wet ink transfer decorating process. The process is used to decorate items like golf balls, water bottles, pens, etc.
There are three steps prior to production:
1. Etching a plate with an image. A laser printer is used to produce an image on semi transparent paper. That paper is placed on the plate and exposed using special light. The plate is developed in plain water and dried.
2. A mold to hold the object to be imaged is made from a material called Bondo. The item is pressed in the material, which is left to harden, then removed leaving a perfect reverse. The hardened mold is placed on the pad printer bed.
3. Special ink is mixed with a hardener and poured onto the base of the machine, where the plate had been placed. Simple adjustments are made to line up the pad, plate and item to be imaged.

A deep etch is similar to laser engraving in that your logo is "etched" into the surface of the product. Laser engraving is typically done on metal items whereas a "deep etch" is done on glass and crystal products.

Offset lithography works on a very simple principle: ink and water don't mix. Images (words and art) are put on plates, which are dampened first by water, then ink. The ink adheres to the image area, the water to the non-image area. Then the image is transferred to a rubber blanket, and from the rubber blanket to paper. The result is striking colour at first rate quality.
