Hi all!
We are making a couple 120" x 72" signs for an apartment complex to go onto their existing wooden frame. pic attached. We already submitted the artwork/estimate and got approvals but now apparently we can't get 4x10 sheets of the Lusterboard we quoted for. After being turned down by all of my suppliers I reached out to the rep at Laminators Inc to see whats up and they said they can't make it due to a MDO shortage for the 10'. 8x4 Lusterboard is available but I don't think my cusomter would be happy with 3 panels. I am looking at ACM but all I see in oversized panels IN STOCK are 3mm and I don't think that would hold up to winds on the frame. I think I could talk my customer into a smaller 5x10 size that acm comes in. What would you all make this out of? Would 3mm acm hold up to winds? The bottom of the sign is 8ft off the ground. Its in Southern California. The only weather realated issues would be sun/rain exposure and some high winds.
