SignSpecialist Icon5 Will the Vinyl Lettering color I receive look different from what I see on the screen?

Yes, ... just slightly.

RGB vs CYMKWhy? Screen colors look different because your computer screen emits light through colors, while your vinyl lettering reflects light. Plus, how is your screen calibrated? What light is the decal seen in? These are variables that could mean there is a slight difference between what a screen shows and what real life shows.
