Here's the capsule shrouds after clear coat. The yellowing is worse than the photo shows. I tried making a copy, but my Canon all-in-one didn't reproduce the detail. Despite the yellowing, the printing is very good on this, the corrugations and bolts/rivets are quite nice on the large shroud, considering it's small size. I'd be interested to know what printing process was originally used for these. Wouldn't have been enough volume for Web Offset or Gravure, and Flexo often doesn't reproduce fine detail very well.
