redrub04 4 Posted April 6, 2012 Needing a 48 x 48 sheet of white painted aluminum for a customer. Having a hard time finding one. Where is the best place to get one of these? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mabscotthandyman 1,410 Posted April 6, 2012 Do a web search for suppliers in your area . You should find one close enough to drive or for delivery. I am in southern WV. And get delivers of substrate from Pittsburgh and Gate City VA. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ravenwind / One Off Grafx 187 Posted April 7, 2012 If you live in the Pacific northwest i have a good supplier of signage material. and does it have to be all aluminum or maybe E panel by Dibond Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slice&dice 2,450 Posted April 7, 2012 By the way, Grimco sells a material similar to ePanel under the trade name "MaxMetal" It is actually able to be cut to size with a utility knife (score it through, and then snap it) I very rarely use sheets of aluminum anymore, with the difference in price to Maxmetal/dibond being only a few dollars.

stetson5331 80 Posted April 8, 2012 I priced a Max Metal sign blank with Grimco on Friday and then priced the Aluminum same size blank..The Aluminum was cheaper..I think the sales gal was dislexic or something but she locked my price so I could price my customer..We will see if what she told me is corect..Grimcos easy ta deal with and delivers to me in 2 days by truck or 4 days with UPS...Crazy difference..LOL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
redrub04 4 Posted April 11, 2012 Tried to talk the customer into anything other than aluminum but thats a no go. If they cant have aluminum they dont want it even though the sign will hang indoors and even a sheet of coroplast will last forever inside! I cannot seem to find anyone who will sell me a 4 x 4.. Everybody seems to sell 4 x 8 only and I really do not have a use for the other half of the sheet.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
