Aluminum Material
Our aluminum signs are made of a 3-layer composite of pre-finished aluminum bonded to a middle core of polyethylene (PE). Making it exceptional for outdoor applications due to the stability, strength, and durability of the material. The graphic is printed on a strong adhesive vinyl that gets mounted to the aluminum composite.
Calendared Vinyl Lamination
Calendared vinyl is an economy film that is non-conformable and does will with flat surface applications such as the aluminum signs. The vinyl is durable and will last around 3-5 years depending on sun and weather exposure. Calendared vinyl does tend to shrink over time resulting in less resistance to weather elements. At that time it would be recommended to replace the sign.

Care & Use of the Aluminum Signs
The aluminum signs are durable and weatherproof, however, since these signs are usually outdoors, they can and will get dirty, regular (every few weeks or so) cleaning will prolong the life of your custom printed sign panels. Without regular cleaning dirt and grim can build up making it difficult to get off.
Washing your signs
- Don't use any harsh chemicals because you can damage the print or lamination.
- Use a little soapy water, wiping your replacement panels gently with a soft cloth or towel.

Setup
Slip in sign system
Signs just slip in to the frame and are held in place by metal extrusions in the frame combined with a spring loaded clip that holds the sign close to the angle iron. The clips and springs will hold your sign for normal applications. If you expect high winds or this is more permanent then it is suggested that you drill holes in the sign face and add some bolts to the top of the sign and through the pre-drilled holes in the frame. This will stop the sign from moving in the frame and also help stop vandals from removing the signs.
