Need advice on plexiglass sign

[Happyprinter]

Had a customer bring in 2 plexiglass panels that fit into the display on top of a freezer. Each panel has a company logo mounted on the backside so when it is installed you can see the companies info thru the front of the plexiglass when the lights in the back are turned on. Can someone tell me how to I can reproduce the signs? It looks like it would have to be printed on the adhesive side but, I'm hoping there is another way to do this.

reverse cut vinyl..... reverse print on clear.... would have to be super clean though so it dosent pick up any dust or crud.... without seeing what it looks like i would do the reverse cut vinyl.... just my $0.02

Need a lot more detail in order to help you with any advice. Is the plexi clear or white? Is the customer wanting you to re-use his existing panels? Is the logo full color or 1 color?

Lot's of details you are leaving out here....Help us help you

I just did one, I had a scrap of thin clear acrylic, reverse cut translucent letters and backed with translucent white, or you could do the letters 1st surface and back with white 2nd surface, or use white acrylic and translucent vinyl, or do a first surface translucent print and put in on white acrylic or a reverse translucent print on clear and back with white

Clear reverse with translucent white (clear adhesive) backing then cut to shape if needed. We do a ton of these onto acrylic blanks for internal signage.

Sorry for the lack of information. Let me add some additional information. It goes on clear plexi. The customer wants a photograph printed on a white background, then mounted to the back of the plexiglass, which has me very confused on how to print on a substrate then attach it, printed face down, onto the plexi and make it adhere to it. Is this additional info helpful or have I helped muddy the water more. Thanks Brian

Also Circleville we will be using a new piece of plexi.

Print on clear in reverse, then back it up with white vinyl then apply to plex face.

Easy as 1-2-3
