FYI...
Used an automotive paint, Black Metallic, on black ACM & set the letter off 2". Worked perfect. It does not "glow" as much as the white background but it looks better.
The insides of the letters will be painted white.
I did try using white vinyl behind the letter in shape of letter. It helped but I did not like the appearance.
Looking for black metallic paint to test today.
I will plan to use the high reflective white paint for inside of letters. I didn't...
Using red LED modules for illumination. Really like the red glow. The returns will be milled aluminum, faces will be red. Using clear polycarb for backs & stud mounting about 1" off cabinet.
Would like the cabinet to be black if at all possible but the white background really glows well.

We are building a set of back lit channel letters for our sign. I have attached an image of similar. We made a letter to test and cannot get the "glow" when using a black substrate for a background. A white background glows great but the gloss black aluminum has no glow, only a reflection.
Is...
We switched several years ago. We kept 2 designer seats just to use for old files. I export from flexi as pdf to use in illy if needed.
It is a steep learning curve but I would not go back. Colors are no longer an issue. The only thing I miss is working in full size for large projects but that...
You can probably lower the pressure like already suggested. I know ours will do the from time to time if there is very little vinyl vs backer paper.
I found if I leave a small 1" border of vinyl around the perimeter of the backer, this never happens. The vinyl around the edge also keeps the...
My favorite part of Ringcentral is the mobile phone app. I can call outside of the shop & none gets my mobile number. My shop number show on their caller ID.
We have had it for over 4 years & I would not go back. I can think of 2 times our service was down for unknown reason on their end for may...
My CWT table has a slight "bow" in the middle but it flattens when the roller is in down position. I laminate & mask 12 to 14 foot lengths with no problem at all.
I have included a picture with the roller just touching the "hump". This is with no pressure on the table. This is gone with the...
We always call it "Bumpin' Uglies" for slang.
With a name like that I do not believe they will attract that CEO or Purchasing Agent that will keep them busy with profitable work.
I have needed hearing aids for years. The prices were enough for me to not care if I can hear someone complain. I have found Costco to have the cheapest prices.
On a side note......My father gets his from the VA. He has a few older ones that I have thought about using. He said I can have them...
I don't know how I missed that one. I was expecting more of the "claws" to make me think Lobster. Thank you for making me look stupid. But in your defense, that is not difficult.
If it needs to be printed we usually use Avery MPI2050 for 1st surface and reverse print on 3M 40c clear for 2nd surface. We do not double print on 1st surface. This gives us the best day & night colors.
