What’s the best method to achieve this sign?
Hi all. Am after a bit of collective advice on this.
I’ve a customer to wants me to refresh his shop. The sign is the easy bit, but he has some ugly windows above the main windows that I’d love to cover up.
Trouble is, they let in a lot of light, so he wants to keep them, so we’ve come to a compromise.
I’ve suggested we cover them with clear perspex backed with a digital print & some text. Now here’s my issue. If I print onto clear at reduced opacity, the windows will still be visible. If I print onto white, no light will come through. So?
Do I use frosted perspex instead, or print onto frosted or translucent vinyl?
The text can be solid vinyl & go on the face as it’s going up high, but I’m unsure how to achieve a subtle print effect whilst covering up the ugly windows but still letting light through.
Your help & input, as always, will be greatly appreciated on this.
Cheers,
G.

Why not just print on contravision and apply this to the glass instead?

well we started printing onto etch with our latex… working well so far

quote Phill Fenton:Why not just print on contravision and apply this to the glass instead?the windows are made up of many individual panels, so would need to be covered with a substrate. I’m unsure whether contravision would let enough light through?
Dave: I don’t suppose you have any pics do you?

I would print onto Frost. depending which you used it could still let 80-90% of the light in.
