Frosted Acrylic Signs Overview
Frosted acrylic signage is widely used to create nameplates, logo signs and other business products. The product has the appearance of etched glass. It’s also more durable, lighter and easier to work with than glass.
Printing of Frosted Acrylic Signs
Frosted acrylic signs can be printed in full color, just like regular acrylic signs. The key difference compared to acrylic photo prints is that the design is applied directly to the front surface, creating a smooth, vibrant printed area while the rest of the sign maintains its elegant frosted finish. Your design is directly printed on the front side of the material. The printed surface loses its etched effect while the remaining part retains the frosted appearance.
Material of Frosted Acrylic Signs
The material we use is clear acrylic with an etched surface on one side. This effect obscures the view but allows light transmission. Choose from the two material thickness options for your frosted acrylic sign: 1/8" (0.125") or 1/4" (0.25"). While the 1/8" option makes even large signs durable, you’re free to choose the thickness you like.

FAQs for Frosted Acrylic Signs
What is the difference between frosted and clear acrylic signs?
- Frosted acrylic signs offer a translucent finish that resembles etched glass. This unique texture diffuses light, creating a subtle look that’s perfect for professional spaces like lobbies and conference rooms. In contrast, clear acrylic signs are transparent, providing a glossy aesthetic that allows the background to show through. While both materials are durable, frosted acrylic is chosen for its elegant, light-diffusing properties, while clear acrylic is valued for its pristine, glass-like clarity.
Can I use a frosted acrylic sign outdoors?
- While frosted acrylic is a durable and weather-resistant material, it is most popular for indoor use. The semi-opaque surface is excellent for managing light and glare in lobbies and reception areas. I t's best to place the sign in a covered or protected area outside to extend its lifespan.
How do you clean and care for a frosted acrylic sign?
- Use a soft cloth (like a microfiber towel) with a mild soap and water solution. Gently wipe the surface to remove any dust or fingerprints. It is crucial to avoid using ammonia-based cleaners or rough sponges, as they can permanently cloud or scratch the frosted finish.
