Neon Signs Give You A Fascinating Life

A simulated neon sign comprises a frame, non-neon internal lighting

, and a front plastic panel having an outer face. The outer face of the front plane comprises outwardly projecting indicia and a non-projecting region that is substantially opaque to the internal light. Pigmented translucent coating is applied on the indicia so that light from the internal lighting can pass through the indicia. To simulate the halo effect of a neon light, additional pigmented coating is applied to the non-projecting region of the panel adjacent the indicia. A method for manufacturing the neon sign is also disclosed.

Neon sign is currently very popular, partly because they are very attractive and are an excellent way to draw attention to a business. Also, neon signs are part of the recent nostalgia for the "good old days" of the 1950's.

However, neon lighting has significant problems. Neon sign derives their illumination from ionized gases contained in configurated transparent tubing. Currently they are relatively expensive to construct compared to conventional fluorescent signs. Furthermore, neon signs require special electrical service accomplished through transformers.

Other problems with neon lights include that they are fragile, and thus difficult to transport, they have a short life when installed, and are easily broken. This means neon sign is generally impractical to transport to rural areas, and once installed in a rural area, expensive to maintain. Further, when a neon sign breaks, generally the entire sign must be replaced. Neon signs are also difficult to work up into an intricate shape or logo for advertising purposes. Another problem with neon sign is that their transparent tubing is generally not visible in daylight. However, neon signs are so brilliant, they are generally unsuitable for interior use.
