Abstract
[Problem] An instrument display board is provided which does not need troublesome work for preparing plural plate members, can adopt a great variety of designs, can present a stereoscopic feeling and a high-class feeling, brings about unprecedented color tone variation, metallic texture, brilliancy in the light, etc., is very excellent in high-class feeling and design variation, has excellent appearance quality and therefore can enhance merchantability. A process for producing the instrument display board is provided. [Solution means] The instrument display board includes a light-transmitting substrate, at least one partial print layer, a different-color print layer having a color tone different from that of the partial print layer, said partial print layer and said different-color print layer being provided on a back surface of the light-transmitting substrate, and a shield member that is provided at a position on a front surface of the light-transmitting substrate, said position corresponding to a position surrounding a part or the whole of the outer periphery of a print portion of the partial print layer. A portion of the light-transmitting substrate corresponding to the partial print layer is a transparent layer. The instrument display board can present a stereoscopic feeling without using plural plate members, brings about unprecedented color tone variation, metallic texture, brilliancy in the light, etc., is very excellent in high-class feeling and design variation, has excellent appearance quality and therefore can enhance merchantability. The process of the invention can produce the instrument display board.
