Taking Care of Your Acrylic Board

Introduction

Acrylic easily scratches and can chip or shatter when mishandled. To prevent damage to your acrylic sign we recommend that you properly install, maintain, and care for your acrylic. In the event that you need to clean your acrylic sign we recommend using a damp non-abrasive cloth to wipe the surface. Avoid contact with any sharp objects that may scratch the printed surface or acrylic. When storing your acrylic sign be sure to cover it with soft fabric or packaging wrap to prevent scratches from occurring. Do not place any objects on or against your acrylic sign during storage. For increased longevity install your sign in locations that aren't in direct sunlight for extended periods..

Removing the Protective Film

The surface of acrylic signs is easily scratched. In order to protect your acrylic signs during shipment we add a protective blue film to the acrylic surface.

This film is normal and isn't a permanent part of your acrylic sign. The process to remove the blue film takes only a minute or two. Simply begin at one of the corners of the sign and start pulling the film from the surface of the acrylic. Once the protective film is removed your sign is ready for installation.
