Need Help Will Red Reflective Look "Washed Out" at Night?

Will Red Reflective Look "Washed Out" at Night on white reflective?
I would be covering the sign in the attachment with 3M3930 White Reflective and then
Cutting the Millport Supply and Open Arrow in 3M3932 Red Reflective.
Customer thinks red may look washed out at night since they are both reflective.
I don't think it will.....

Use 3M 1170 overlay.

But if you do use both reflectives, think about what a green or blue reflective street sign or highway sign looks like with reflective white letters on it.

the white may be more prevalent, but STOP and DNE signage reads just fine already.

personally, I hate the idea of non-DOT reflective signage... clients think they're getting "illumination" or "better visibility" but it really only "lights up" if you're driving right-at the sign.
