The additional cost per record for regular weight
colored vinyl is:
- $ .27 per record for standard colors:
standard colors include red, gold/yellow, blue, green, and clear. - $ .45 per record for white vinyl or any custom color or any mixture of more than one color.
Please contact us for HQ-180 colored vinyl costs and more details.
The rule of thumb for ordering extra stampers for regular weight records is; one set of stampers per 1,000 records, plus one extra set for all colored vinyl jobs. For HQ-180 records it is; one set of stampers per 500 records. At least one extra set of stampers will be made on colored vinyl jobs to minimize downtime when a stamper change is needed.
