4. HOW TO IDENTIFY AND MATCH YOUR PRESENT CHEVRON MATERIAL & COLOR?

Comments & suggestions:

​

  • Glass Bead reflective sheeting is very low in reflective power compared to prismatic sheeting.

  • 3M 3900 or 4000 series is very bright for signage, but is NOT recommended for vehicle graphics.

  • Fluorescent lime/yellow is more visible than yellow during the day. This is why emergency vests and school zone signs are fluorescent lime-yellow.
