Prismatic Appliqued Letter Signs

A prismatic routed letter adds more than just one extra dimension to a normal sign. Whether it is a sandblasted sign or a custom routed sign, it  makes a huge difference to its visual effect; it creates a whole new look to any sign, so if its a classy impact you are looking for this is a great way to do it.

Signs only make you money if they get noticed and what a stylish way this is to do just that. Prismatic letters really get peoples attention.

Many of our Prismatic letters are created from either hdu or PVC. Then the letters are carefully and painstakingly prepared before being gilded with 23kt gold or other metal leaf. This gives a unique finish which cannot be reproduced or replicated using paint. Of course if the project calls for it we sometimes just paint them.

Prismatic letters have a multi-angle surface which when gilded with gold or other metal leaf such as silver, (we use palladium as it, like gold, never tarnishes, it looks similar to silver, but slightly darker and denser in color). This means that wherever the light source originates, some part of the letters are catching the light and reflecting it.

This style of prismatic letter reflects light in many directions giving a time-honored glow that is long lasting and creates a striking, classy look to any exterior or interior signage.  

Copper leaf and variegated leaf also give a wonderful warm feeling to a sign when applied to prismatic letters. They need to be clear coated, we apply 6 coats of an automotive two part catalyzed finish to ensure it lasts for many, many years. 

The prismatic letters on this Sheldrake sign have been given a 23 kt. gold outline which gives the black prismatic letters further definition on a white background. This makes the sign stand out, is very clear and easy to read and looks very professional.
