Will acrylic take the weight of built up letters?
Hi All
Currently quoting a customer to replace an acrylic panel in an existing single sided Dual Case sign. This is simple enough but they want fabricated letters mounting on the front.
The design brief really calls for chunky stainless letters but I’m concerned that these will be too heavy to mount on the acrylic panels, ie causing them to bow outwards. Other options for the letters include flat cuts in mirrored acrylic and I’m not too concerned about the weight of these.
I could brace the panels with clear acrylic strips but most of the panel will be plain opal 050 with just a pink vinyl ‘halo’ around the letters and I’m unsure if the strips will show through too much?
Any thoughts on whether bracing will be required and also how any such strips will show through.
Many Thanks
Macky
