    Perspex do a "secret acrylic" in a matt black but needs black vinyl on the rear to stop you seeing light through.
    If you go into any NatWest Bank branch, you will see over the cashiers position, a matt black panel. If the till is in use, you can see the text "Cashier" illuminated in white. This is done by reverse cutting black vinyl with the letters weeded out to let the light through.
    Because of this, the acrylic is very expensive. If you are only after a small piece, PM me.
