When it comes to window displays, you might be wondering; should the window lettering be on the interior or exterior side of the glass? What you may forget to consider is that most exterior glass is tinted for the sun. How heavy that tint is depends on each window. But anything placed on the interior side, facing out, will also receive that tint. For best visibility we suggest always placing lettering on the exterior side.
The next concern people have is how long it can last when subjected to the elements. While most of our materials are made to last seven years outside, our own window display has lasted fifteen years thus far. There was been no peeling or cracking around the edges. Most of the lettering is white, which not only provides the best contrast on a tinted window, but doesn’t fade in color.
Occasionally a customer will voice a concern about vandalism. How easy would it be for someone to remove the lettering? If it’s within the first couple hours, it’s not hard to peel something off. Once the adhesion has had time to bake in, it becomes increasingly difficult over the hours without tools and degreaser to remove.
