Standard Colors
With more standard colors than ever before, This improved standard color collection shows you all of our colors and tells you about them. Note that the colors of the actual finished sign will vary from the colors shown on your screen. Inks are translucent so when printing on a background other than white, the colors will look darker. If you don't see a color you need, we can mix special colors for many items using the PantoneĀ® Matching System.
