The background layer 202 may be an opaque light-shielding layer. The background layer 202 is similar to the background layer 102 shown in fig. 1 and will not be described herein.

In another embodiment, the background layer 202 is formed between the basecoat layer 208 and the substrate 201, with the color icon A, B, C, D offset from the background layer 202. The background layer 202 is formed on the substrate 201 to leave a region where the color icon A, B, C, D is required, the background layer 208 is formed on the background layer 202 and the region left on the substrate 201, and the color icon A, B, C, D is formed on the background layer 208. The colored icon A, B, C, D does not overlap with the background layer 202.

In another embodiment, the background layer 202 is formed on the substrate 201, and the base color layer 208 and the colored icons A, B, C, D are offset from the background layer 202. The material of the base color layer 208 may be saved. The base color layer 208 and the color icon A, B, C, D are overlapped, and the color icon A, B, C, D is positioned on the side of the base color layer 208 opposite to the substrate 201, so that the base color layer 208 and the color icon A, B, C, D are not overlapped with the background layer 202 for hiding the color icon.

In another embodiment, the substrate 201 is a translucent substrate and the hidden color icon is formed on the translucent substrate. The base color layer 208 may be omitted, the color icon layer 203 may be directly formed on the surface of the substrate 201, and the background layer 202 may also be directly formed on the surface of the substrate 201. The process is simplified.

Similar to the diffusion layer 104 shown in fig. 1, in the embodiment shown in fig. 3, a translucent diffusion layer 204 may be formed by screen printing on the side of the color mark layer 103 facing away from the substrate 201, as shown in fig. 4 in fig. 3, and described in detail above.
