I have been doing some testing and so far have had pretty good results, with putting my graphics in the ice at a curling rink.

Has anyone tried this? What kind of success? Any helpful hints?

Thanx
Glenn

Havent tried that one yet Glenn, but I think you shouldnt have any U.V. problems, probally wont have any problems until they melt it off, you havent any real expansion and contraction issues until then.

i dont think that you should have any problem using inkjet prints. there are water resistant paper media available on the market. you could also liminate it or coat it with a coating. sounds like a winner of an idea to me!

have a great one!

UV won't be a problem because I am running the Dico jet inks and the image will be indoors. Also the media I am printing on turns transparent when it gets wet, leaving just the image that is visible and not the paper. The paper is kind of like that rough toilet paper we had to use at camp when we were kids :-) It is hard to load, but once loaded it prints surprisingly well.
I have found that it needs to be set in the ice before the ice can be flooded
