If a color background is what you are trying to achieve, try using a transparent color vinyl, or you can scuff the background with a light grid sand paper, or better yet a scotchbrite pad. Then roll or spray the background color. Just make sure this is all done from the back of sign.

Hi Dianne. Grip Flex is what you should be using. It's made specifically for plastic sign faces, both acrylic and lexan. Be sure to use the proper thinner with it though....there's one that's very specifically for polycarbonates, which Lexan is.

Why do I get all those on-line offers to sell me Viagara, when the only thing hardening is my arteries ?
