ABSTRACT:
A full color transplanting process for providing a full color picture, drawing or printing permanently and evenly on an undulate surface of an object, including any irregular, uneven and undulate surface thereon. The process includes the following steps. Print a clear and flexible transplanting membrane with a predetermined picture, drawing or printing thereon, wherein the transplanting membrane has a surface area at least equal to a total surface area of a predetermined printing surface of an object. Clean the printing surface of the object thoroughly to clear all removable dirt and particles thereon. Pre-heat the object to a predetermined temperature between 150.degree. F. and 300.degree. F. Rub the printing surface of the object until the entire printing surface is provided with static electricity. Evenly attach the transplanting membrane on the printing surface of the pre-heated object by means of the static electricity provided on the printing surface until the whole printing surface is entirely covered by and fully in contact with the transplanting membrane. Evenly and fully heat the object in an oven at a predetermined temperature under the melting point of the material of the object for a predetermined period of time until the transplanting membrane is fully and integrally attached with the printing surface of the object. Cool the object to room temperature.
