I searched the archives didn't quite find the answer to my question, so now I'll ask.
I have two replacement panels (56-3/4" x 8-1/4") to produce for a church. These panels only have the pastor's name on them. They only want the name to be lit. The name is to be white and the rest of the panel in a dark green. Is it possible to put white translucent on the entire back side of a clear leaxan panel and reverse weed a cast dark green for the front to get this effect? Will the cast last? Is it too opaque? A little bit of lighting of the green will be acceptable.

Yes. Or just use reverse weed green on white lexan.

Dana,
I would lay the green vinyl over black and then cut. I would also keep some kind of border or panel around the preacher's name to facilitate a name change at a later date.

When I've seen standard HP cast vinyl backlit, it was very blotchy. I'd devinatly stick with translucent vinyl. That's what it's made for.

thin layer of krylon white on back of clear poly-carb green vinyl reverse weeded on front.
