Hellcat Industries - Custom Indoor Neon Sign

Written By Emily

Hellcat Industries, a brand with a bold identity, approached Neon Brothers to create a compact but impactful custom indoor neon sign featuring detailed color and icon elements.

Challenge

  • Design contained multiple color elements, needing clarity in a compact size
  • Client wanted blue text lighting with full icon visibility
  • Requested changes after production regarding lighting in the eyes of the icon
  • Product experienced minor flickering/sound sensitivity post-installation
  • Client needed clarity on UV print vs. actual illumination areas

Solution

Custom LED Neon + UV Print Sign for Hellcat Industries

Design & Quotation:

  • Recommended upgrade from 50cm to 100cm for visibility, but client chose 50x50cm
  • Final quote: A$297.73 (Classic Neon glow + UV printed icon)
  • Color preference locked as blue, matching the brand’s look
  • Provided web payment link and installment plan

Mockup & Approval:

  • Client selected blue neon with black acrylic background
  • UV print used for the icon; text lit in LED neon
  • When client raised concern about unlit icon areas (like the eyes), we explained the UV vs. LED distinction
  • Offered optional remake with lit eyes at additional cost (A$93.26), but client approved current version to stay on budget

Post-Production Support:

  • Client reported unusual flickering when tapping surfaces
  • Guided client through remote settings (flicker mode off)
  • Further investigated hardware and suggested reconnecting power securely
  • Ongoing support was offered despite no manufacturing defect found

Outcome

The custom 50x50cm neon sign was completed and delivered on time. Although the client initially faced challenges with the lighting expectations and sound-triggered flickering, Neon Brothers provided step-by-step guidance and transparent support throughout. The sign now sits as a key branded element in Hellcat Industries’ indoor setup.

Key Takeaways

  • Size recommendations matter when detailed design elements are involved
  • Post-sale guidance (e.g., remote flicker settings) builds trust and reduces returns
  • Client education on UV vs. LED differences is essential before production
  • Even when misunderstandings arise, calm, respectful, and clear communication can preserve the relationship
