Hey!

I want to archive this kind of look for my office glas door. How is this done? Is it a flat-black-foil on the back of the door and plotted gold letters on the front side? Pic related.

Graphic Designer/signage installer girlfriend says it's most likely a full height digital print on clear media, printed in reverse and applied to the back of the glass. There would be nothing on the front of the glass because anything that thin would not last unless sealed in. The lines on the lettering are too thin to have been cut from vinyl or foil, and foil is rarely used anyway she's telling me (because again, too hard to work reliably for smaller details)

Further, she says check out solargard UV clear print PC2 vinyl to get this done on. We know it looks like there is decal on the front and rear, but the shadow is most likely printed.

Thank you and your girlfriend, sir! I was sure there is sth on the frontside but as I looked closer it really looks like there are just printed shadows. Also it seems like the glass does not influence the color-brightness of the signs, thats why I thought it is on front. Sadly Google does not give me sth. for "solargard UV clear print PC2 vinyl"...

Hmm, neither can I. Email me, [email protected] and I'll send you a datasheet. You can take that to a print house and they'l know what you're on about.

If its an indoor install you could put the black on the back and gold on the front, but if its external facing it won't last for shit.
>>
>>1026967
it is for indoor use. wondering if this is a black-glass (smoke glass) door, or it is some kind of paper?
>>
>>1026968
I'd say opaque black vinyl on clear glass or you wouldn't see the shadow (assuming the shadow isn't printed)
>>
>>1026969
if it is vinyl it looks like it has a matte finish or so?
