Abstract
A retroreflective sign comprising a rigid substrate with a pattern of cell walls formed of a polyurethane adhesive or two-part polyurea adhesive, and a polymeric sheet having a front face and a rear face, the rear face facing the substrate, the rear face comprising microprismatic reflective elements is disclosed. The polymeric sheet is adhered directly to the cell walls formed of the polyurethane adhesive or two-part polyurea adhesive while leaving an air gap between the microprismatic retroreflective elements and the rigid substrate in the cells. A method of making the retroreflective sign includes applying a polyurethane adhesive or two-part polyurea adhesive to a front side of a rigid substrate in a pattern defining cell walls; and prior to full curing of the polyurethane adhesive, laminating the front side of the rigid substrate a rear side of a polymeric sheet via the cell walls, the polymeric sheet comprising microprismatic elements.
