For example an existing awning that has been exposed to outdoor elements for a period of time may require the process of painted graphics because of dirt that has been built up into the fibers of the material.

The process of painting involves generating a reverse mask for the area in which the graphic will be located. The mask is then adhered to the surface of the awning providing a boundary for the artwork to be hand painted to the awning using special inks designed for the particular material.
