Hi Ray,

You are looking for someone with a "flat bed UV printer" - You could give my buddy Graham Smith a call on 07788 394921 - he works at "Everything For Signs" in Diggle (heaven knows what they do :giggle: )

Graham is ex hot press like me & though he doesn't do it himself - he will know a few people in the area that do...

Just mention my name - I think he will point you to a company just up the road from us in Oldham & one in Ashton town centre.
Your too late I'm afraid - I retired in April 2024 :sun:

Try studio 51 in Rawtenstall, I think they might do it.

just be aware

sign printers will NOT give you the detail in a photo you would get from an art print, there will be no rel shadow detail etc
