R7-8-CA1 Reflective Sheeting Options
Because the R7-8-CA1 backs a legal parking restriction that has to stay legible for years of enforcement, the T-11500 OmniCube - up to 60 percent brighter with a 12-year outdoor durability rating - is the safer choice when night visibility matters most, while the T-6500 High Intensity Prismatic delivers proven 10-year durability.

- Very Reflective At Night
- Required for Most Highway Signs
- 10 Year Outdoor Durability
- Brightest and Most Visible
- Most Reflective At Night
- Up to 60 percent brighter than HIP
- 12 Year Outdoor Durability
The R7-8-CA1 puts a black legend on a white reflective background, and white returns more light than any other color under ASTM D4956, so nearly the entire face lights up under headlights. That is why stepping up to the T-11500 OmniCube produces such a visible change on this sign: you are brightening the color that already dominates the sign face.
