Aluminum Resin Front & Back Lit Channel Letters
Frequently asked Questions
What are the components of an Aluminum Resin Front & Back Lit Channel Letter?
Resin Cover: The front face of the channel letter or logo has a perfectly fit cover since it is crafted using liquid resin cured on top of the metal channel. Select from the white (default) cover, color the face using 3M vinyl, or add graphics using UV printing.
Metal Channel: The structural backbone of the letter/logo sign, made of aluminum. It provides the shape and serves as the house for the LED lights.
LED Lights: The sign is illuminated from the inside using LEDs. Available in 6500K White, 3000K Warm White, Red, Green, or Blue. Additional color temperatures (2700K, 4000K, 5000K, 7000K, 10000K) are available with a $150 USD fee and 2 weeks extra lead time.
Acrylic Reveal: A semi-translucent acrylic material that allows the light to pass through and helps create a halo effect.

What is the difference between Trimless and Aluminum Resin Channel Letters?
Aluminum Resin Channel Letters
Aluminum Resin Channel Letters are made of a fabricated aluminum body and cured liquid resin for the cover. The resin cover perfectly fits the aluminum case. Using less expensive materials without compromising on quality allows us to offer the sign at a more cost-friendly price range. We offer Front and Front & Back Lit versions for this product line.ย
Trimless Channel Letters
Meanwhile, the Trimless Channel Letters are constructed using a combination of metal and laser-cut acrylic sheets. The metal forms the main body of the letter, while the face is made of precisely cut acrylic. A unique feature of these letters is that the acrylic face extends slightly beyond the metal edges, while the light emits from the front to the edges of the front acrylic cover.
