Fellers has GlowEFX, only comes in the green/yellow color. Never seen any in different colors. You could try to print some. FIY, it only stays lit for a short time (hour or less), made for emergency type signs.
I used to do billboards up until the mid 90's. The billboard companies have bought up all the locations and can produce the billboard faster and cheaper (cause it is all they do).
Anyway back in "the day" we would build billboards for customers, we also owned three and rented them. The rent...
I router the edge over with a 1/4" round over bit, I then fill with putty and sand. Rounding the edge is the key, the sharp edge is where the paint will fail first. I get pre-primed MDO.
I never have curling problems, just a little 1/16" of the PVC shows after a year or two. Using cast helps, but cal keep the costs down and work fine for indoor. Like I say, never had a complaint after 1,000's of signs.
I do lots of safety signs, I always put a white boarder on them just for this reason, even yellow caution signs. Nature of the beast, but after doing it this way for 8 years (used to cut vinyl or screen), not had anyone complain.
I am going to say if it isn't painted or coated it won't stick for a long time. If it is just for a show go for it, but nothing long term. Still sounds like MDO to me too.
