The choice of paint used is critical for the longevity of exterior signs.
Keep in mind that a sign will be exposed to the elements year after year through a range of extreme conditions.
Adhering to a strict application process using catalyzed automotive exterior primers and paints with ultraviolet ray inhibitors will provide optimum durability for the finish.
The use of non-catalyzed paints or improper preparation of the raw materials can result in lifting, oxidation or rust.
Once this happens, breakdown occurs which always results in expensive repairs.

The first commercial neon tubing was demonstrated by George Claude in 1910 at Grand Palais in Paris, France.
Since then, neon tubing has become a popular light source because of the range of colors and striking brilliance that incandescent or fluorescent lights cannot offer.
Neon tubing is a very simple device.
It consists of a vacuum-tight glass tube fitted at each end with a glass-encased metal terminal called an electrode.
Inside the tube is a small amount of gas.
The gas is either neon that has a red arc when lit or mercury vapor gas which lights with a blue arc.

Vinyl lettering has become one of the standards for producing sign faces as well as automotive and window graphics.
It comes a in wide range of colors and grades.
Images can also be digitally printed on vinyl then contour cut to create colorful, custom shaped graphics for any application.
Sheet or roll stock is fed into a specialized cutter called a plotter and a pre-designed image is then cut through the vinyl film.
The unwanted material is pulled up (weeded) leaving only the desired image attached to the plastic or paper back liner.
