help with substrate

Recommended Posts

What would be the best substrate for a 48''x96'' sign.? It's going on a corrugated metal building(not flat) also it's facing east and gets hit hard with morning sun.

Thanks!

TC

Alumacorr, C-Bond or colored .040 aluminum.  Personally, I like Alumacorr.  There are also some pre finished wood products, but they are not any cheaper than the aluminum products.  More in some cases.

I've always had trouble with PVC not holding up well in direct sun. Also I'd be leery of mounting it against the corrugated aluminum. I think you'd have problems with heat.

If you have a Grimco around you check out MaxMetal. It s is about half the price as alumacorr and just as good if not better. It has a thicker metal sheeting

Grimco offers  it as Max Metal

N Glantz offers it as Omega bond

2 sided aluminum with plastic core between .

Very durable and reasonably priced.
