Suggestions for semi trailer lettering

[strypguy]

Just wondering what you guys recommend for lettering on a semi trailer.
The trailer has flat panels with the smaller, flatter rivets. It has no recessed areas. It will br 6-7in. letters with a logo above that.

The lettering and logo will be digitally printed and laminated. It is not a wrap so I'm interested in what you guys think would be a good economical inkjet media and lam for the job. Needs to last 3-5 years.

Can I use something like arlon 4560, oracal 3165ra or do I need to go with a cast vinyl. These are old trailers, if that matters. Whole design is in an area of about 6ft.H x 7ft. L.

if its got rivets i use 3m180 regardless of how old it is or how long it needs to last.

Best thing I've ever heard is "Cheap material is not good and good material is not cheap"

Oracal 3551 RA. Works great for your application.

Nothing but cast unless you want to see the customer in a couple years not for another job but for a remake.
spend the extra buck its well worth making a happy customer

Only cast with rivets.
