3D Illuminated Sign – Shiners Carwash Shines Again!

Shiners Carwash came to Sign and Fitouts seeking restoration for their renowned 3D illuminated Sign. The much-loved bold blue letters had lost their shine over the years.

Initially, Shiners sought our opinion on whether brand new Signage was the best way forward. Wanting the most cost-effective solution for our client, we conducted a thorough inspection of the original sign to determine whether refurbishment was an option. Despite 20 years of wear and tear, the old sign still had potential. We presented both options to our client; refurbishing the existing sign was a far more economical option than creating brand new signage.

We pulled the 3D Letters down and brought them back to life in our Heidelberg West workshop. After a coat of paint, some retouching and a brand-new set of LED lights and bases, Shiners is once again a beacon in Melbourne.

3D illuminated letters utilize LED lights, rather than the historical neon, which provide numerous advantages including cost-effectiveness due to lower power consumption, brightness and a longer life span. This vibrant signage option can be customized to your needs; the 3D letters can be fully illuminated (front and sides), front lit, side lit or backlit. We will work with you to design a custom sign that will help your business stand out.

On our website, you’ll find an impressive range of services. Whether you need a custom sign designed from scratch, or you have a sign you’d like to refurbish- Sign and Fitouts can help!
