What is the deal with the reveal?

The reveal is the space between the outer edge of the O’verlay and the edge of the drawer front.

Kind of sounds like a Seinfeld episode, I know,
but many of you have asked what this “reveal” we speak of actually is.
 
When myoverlays.com mentions reveal on its website, it is the distance between edge of panel and edge of drawer front

Above you have the Malm 6 drawer with Anne 6″ x 29″ panels.
See the green arrows?
That’s the “reveal”.
This reveal is one inch.

1/2" reveal

Here you have the Anne 7″ x 30″ with a half inch reveal.

Reveals can vary in size.
They can be the same all around or differ.

1" reveal on top and bottom of panel and 1.5" on sides of panel

Here the reveal is one inch on the top and bottom and 1.5″ on the sides.

 
1/2" reveal on top and bottom of panel and 1"on sides

The Gracie 7″ x 29″ for the Malm 3 or 6 drawer dresser has a reveal of one inch on the sides and 1/2″ on the top and bottom.

No reveal, the panels cover the entire drawer front

Or you can have no reveal at all like the Jasmine panels on the MALM 3 drawer.

So there you have it,
the deal with the reveal!
