Slightly off topic for an electronics forum but here it goes:
I have finished the design and testing for a product and would like to put a membrane over the tactile buttons that slightly protrude from the front panel.
Is there material out there that I can print up with a laser printer and glue to the front panel for a finished product look?
Thanks

If you don't want to expend your financial fortune ... try this. You can upload your own image and dimensions.

Unfortunately, they wanted to charge me US$50 to post a couple of stickers to me here in Australia. I don't expect to get free postage, but s*i*, that was just plain insulting. In other words, they don't want to acknowledge the free trade agreement between the US and Australia.
Cheers,

Xerox never tear paper - quite pricey at Staples, smaller quantities available on ebay.
You can also get adhesive-backed polyester paper from e.g. Desktop Labels. I just got some samples of their white label material for marking connectors and I'm pretty pleased. It sticks well and is substantially cheaper than the Xerox stuff, although I don't know how it compares in terms of thickness. They have white, colored, and clear labels, so you could print your graphics on an opaque sheet and then laminate it with a clear sheet for protection. |

| They were just worried that they'd be upside down by the time they got to OZ. |
