Makes me think of buisness cards with the thick rasied letters. They
dust the ink with something that expands when heated.
since the ink may not dry quickly, maybe there is a way to dust the
ink to enhance it, then heat the mix to cover better and create a
more resistant surface ?
My first thoughs are dusting with toner. I have some copy toner that
is loose and most anyone with an office copier can have access to
bottles of the stuff for free! As toner is applied, then parts
stick, the rest is wiped off and discarded into a catch tub. The tub
is free for the asking from most any office.
