Retro Vinyl Effect CD 62mm

Retro Vinyl Effect CD with 62mm Printing Area and Matt Finish

Now available to order with mini record sleeves in either white or black.

This is a standard size 120mm recordable CD but has a black base which masks any burn marks, allowing the disc to look like a mastered cd. The surface has a black 'real look and feel' vinyl groove which mimicks a traditional record and the center area is inkjet printable for on-body inkjet printing. The printable area is 62mm and requires an appropriate on-body disc printer.

These discs provide a matt finish printable top.

Vinyl Effect Grooves

These discs have a vinyl style effect on the top which is very realistic, compared to a real record. The grooves are realistic but this disc can not be played on a turntable and is designed for CD playback only.

Wide Compatability

These Vinyl CD-R are perfect for audio or data use, and are widely supported for playback in computers, standalone hi-fi or car CD players. When recording these discs, computer based recording is intended e.g using standard CD writer on a modern PC or MAC, or using duplication equipment e.g towers. These discs are NOT compatible with standalone audio recorders as commonly used in studios.

Printable Area

These discs are print from the inside hole to 62mm and then show vinyl grooves from 62mm to the 120mm edge

True Black Base

We have specialised in this media since 2003 and were the first UK company to sell and specialise in vinyl style media. The base of many inferior types on the market are dark red or blue whereas these use a high quality black DYE which is top quality offering wide comptability in both play back and recording. This DYE has consistently been dark, but our latest batch improves yet again on the replica vinyl look.

Printing onto Vinyl CD

Unlike a standard CD/DVD with a full printable surface, these discs have a vinyl groove on most of the surface with a 70mm printable are within the middle which gives the record look. This inner area is designed for on-body printing and must be done using an inkjet printer which is capable of handling optical media.

Your chosen inkjet printer needs to be able to handle 'zone printing' which is a setting within the driver which allows you to define which areas are printable e.g 70 - 36mm is zone 1 and then 31mm - 20mm is zone2. Unless you can do this, you will be applying ink onto the stacking ring (non print area) between 31 and 36mm which will result in smudging.

Supported Printers 

This latest 70mm product provides greater compatibility with the majority of inkjet printers which use laser detection (require white surface reflection for disc detection). Clamping based printers which physically hold the disc will be fine. The surface is fantastic for professional on-body printing and DIY hobby use, allowing vibrant colour to be produced on the face of the disc. If in doubt, please check with the manufacturer of your printer.
