[A four] color process inks are designed to be transparent so they will create other colors when they are overlapped. When these very transparent inks, without a white back up, are printed on a clear material to create a decal that will go in a window the whole imprint just disappears. By backing the four color process printing with white we can define and present a process image without losing any detail or color on an inside window decal. 2, record 1, English, - white%20back%2Dup%20plate
