1. A method of manufacturing a plastic glazing panel, the method comprising the steps of:

  • forming a substantially transparent plastic panel;

    printing an opaque pattern from an ink, the opaque pattern being in contact with the plastic panel;

    pre-drying the ink of the opaque pattern to a tack-free condition;

    applying a weather resistant layer on the opaque pattern and on the plastic panel;

    curing the ink of the opaque pattern;

    curing the weather resistant layer; and

    depositing an abrasion resistant layer on the weather resistant layer;

    wherein the pre-drying of the ink substantially removes the solvent therein without substantially curing the ink.
