You could possibly use 6mm ACM and should not see much of a delta E shift on the white polyester coating in 10 years.

Are these sticking to a glass door to be viewed from both sides like a visa decal? If so, be sure that the ink is solvent resistant if you use a solvent based optically clear adhesive. You would not want it to de-laminate.

The Sloan product is flexible neon and the contour needs heat to mold into a jig to take shape and then load the light engine - that is a lot of work. I believe you can cap and solder the Sloan product in the field. I use to sell Global Lux which was very similar except it was 24V which allowed...

Sloan has a 12V product with a variety of colors. Check their website for details. It works very well and is ideal for lighting up the perimeter of buildings. Yes you can make money!
