What are the acrylic reveal options for Trimless Back Lit?

Acrylic reveals in Trimless backlit channel letters affect the lighting effect, depth, and overall appearance of the sign. Different options provide varying levels of illumination, visibility, and aesthetic appeal. The choice depends on design preferences and functional needs.

No Acrylic Backer (Open)

This option leaves the back open, which creates a strong glow effect because the light directly illuminates the mounting surface.

0 – Recessed Acrylic Backer

This backer sits flush with the back of the sign, making it invisible from the side view. It provides protection while maintaining a sleek appearance and diffusing light evenly.

1/5″ (5mm) Acrylic Reveal

A subtle backer that extends slightly from the back, giving a controlled halo effect while maintaining a minimalist appearance.

2/5″ (10mm) Acrylic Reveal

A medium-depth option that enhances the glow, making the backlighting more pronounced and noticeable.

3/5″ (15mm) Acrylic Reveal

The most extended reveal option, maximizing the halo effect for a bold and striking illuminated look.

Choosing the right acrylic reveal depends on how much light diffusion and depth you want for your signage.
