There’s nothing like having a neon sign that’s made just for you — something that carries your story, your brand, your memories. After a lifetime of selfless commitment to supporting your family and placing your wants on the back burner, you've earned your dream car and your dream garage. Whatever you do, don't hang a piece of plastic over the car you've always wanted and finally own. The car, and you deserve better and Porcelain Advertising is committed to making your dreams a reality.
Whether it’s the logo on your first truck, the badge from your dream car, your shop name, or a piece of Roadside Americana you’ve always loved, we build neon the same way the old manufacturers did: real hand-blown glass, porcelain enamel faceplates, powder-coated steel cans, and transformers that give neon that unmistakable warm glow.

Why Our Custom Neon Signs Feel Different
Most “custom neons” you see online aren’t neon at all. They’re plastic LED strips glued to acrylic. Lightweight, disposable, and meant for short-term decoration — not for people who care about authenticity.
Our process is the opposite. See How Real Neon Signs Are Made Step-by-Step
✔ Real Hand-Blown Neon Glass
Every tube is bent by a skilled glassblower, the same traditional way vintage neon was made for gas stations, dealerships, and diners.
✔ Porcelain Enamel Faceplates
Your artwork is kiln-fired onto heavy-gauge steel — giving the sign color depth, durability, and gloss you can’t fake.
✔ Powder-Coated Steel Cans
Built strong enough for garages, workshops, home bars, showrooms, barn finds, and anywhere you want to make a statement.
✔ Up to Three Neon Colors Included
Bright, warm, and true to period-correct neon aesthetics.

Safe, durable, and delivers that classic neon buzz everyone loves.
