i am not sure what the part is ? is it clear?

you might try inserting a decal or film to which the PU will bond

or you can in mold paint and the PU will stick to that

without know the PU material, process temp , tool temp etc and the use of the part it is hard to make a suggestion

best of luck

you can vacuum a film or sheet into the mold and pour behind it and the PU should stick to the substrate

vinyl , abs, pc, are best... PP and PE are not good without flame treatment

if adhesion is a problem, try an alcohol wipe to clean and let dry

sometimes process lubicates (mineral oil) are on the surface of films

let us know how it turns out?

If the part is a doming resin, I doubt any adhered or painted surface would stand up to Quality testing. Toyota uses, or used to use, an integral additive to an aliphatic PU casting resin to get the golden color, but I'm not allowed to comment on what the additive is/was. There are also some polyols on the market that will give a "golden" tone to a cast PU resin, as part of the inhibitor package.

Hi, You can use golden leaf which are cupper colored gold laminates that you apply with a glue and then you paint with and ocher stain to get the appereance of antique gold.
