Vinyl
Features
This is the material that is used to put color onto a substrate. Vinyl
comes in an almost unlimited array of colors and grades. Vinyl starts
at an indoor grade and goes up to a premium outdoor vinyl with every type
in between. Vinyl is also available in reflective, holographic, chrome,
gold leaf, silver leaf, and many other types as well.
For the purposes of ordering we use the following scale to indicate what
grade of vinyl should be used on the sign. We offer many standard types,
but amy specific quality can be special ordered. You should ask
a sales representative for further information regarding special order
vinyl.
We proudly use Avery
Dennison and Oracal vinyl products.
