Acrylic Signs
Acrylic signs are made of an extremely versatile plastic sheet with a glossy finish, which is also known as Plexiglas®. Acrylic is the perfect choice when you want signs with a sophisticated, high-tech look. Highly durable and available in a variety of colors, acrylic is often used for illuminated, architectural, tradeshow and point-of-purchase signs.

Acrylic Sign Ideas
Increase the visual effectiveness of your acrylic signs by:
• Adding stripes and borders
• Applying multiple lettering colors
• Incorporating a logo or graphic symbol
• Using multiple layers of acrylic to enhance the image
• Creating a three-dimensional effect - giving the perception of
depth to the finished product - using clear acrylic and applying
a background color to the reverse side
• Designing custom applications
• Using bent easels
• Using non-glare acrylic to reduce glare problems
Installation
Acrylic signs may be displayed in several ways:
• Self-supporting (bent easel)
• Hanging
• Using Velcro®
• Gluing
• Using double-sided tape
• Applying suction cups
Care
• Do not leave acrylic in direct sun or in a hot car; it may bow or
bend if not laying flat
• Handle acrylic signs with care because acrylic scratches easily
and can shatter or chip upon impact
• Use acrylic signs for long-term indoor use or for short-term outdoor
use in areas protected by overhangs or awnings.
(This does not apply to acrylic used in light box signs)
Sign products and materials may vary by location.
