'Printed' engraving help

[Irontoe]

Hi all,

 

I have a customer who would like an A5 size piece of sticky back metal (like the trophy plates) engraved, however - he has seen the wording done in black, almost as if it were printed on ther rather than engraved. I'm sure I was saw a company that produced a printer that printed off trophy plates from a roll but I don't know where to go to find a piece this size. There's quite a bit of text to go on.

Failing that, I need an A5 self adhesive sheet in silver colour. Any ideas?

I think some sign companies use flatbed UV printers that can print on almost anything 

I'd sooner find someone with a C02 laser, should be able to get lots of detail with very shallow depth on the proper material

Ah, that's the sort of thing - do you fancy a one off job?

Nice job

What equipment do you need to do this sort of work ?
