At this point, there are rattle cans of aluminum primer in supply and then top coat with another rattle can. We will use rattle cans on small...
  5. Retrofit Polycarbonate faced sign to flex face

    I agree with all the comments - not mentioned is the point that a pan formed face is used not only for strength, but for sufficient spacing with the light source. Make sure your cabinet is deep enough to prevent spotting.
