Lighted sign question...

[K Chez]

Would it be better to use a white translucent or clear sheet of polycarb. when applying a laminated print on white translucent vinyl?

 

[J Hill Designs]

best (I believe) is a mirror print on clear applied sub-surface, with a print on trans white applied first-surface

Much of it will depend on the type of light and how bright it is.

White plastic will defuse the light and make it more even. If you are printing be sure to have your printer set for translucent film, otherwise the ink will not be dark enough and the print will has a washed look to it.

Do a double strike on the print, set it to dry for 10 minutes & return to origin after printing, then just reprint it-if you need to contour cut it, just lam it after the 2nd strike, feed it back in & cut it, they look a whole lot nicer if you double strike!-also I recomend white plast, only use clear if you are gonna paint it.
