  Tell the client that Dibond is the only option, some people just want the quality but do not want to pay the price…age old story!! 👿 👿

  what about edging or double sided tape some sort of solid strip to the back. this “may” keep it flat.
  maybe correx with the flutes going one way and straps going the other on the rear will keep it flat? 🙄
  most things will react to the heat if there is enough of it. if this is the case the customer doesnt have much option other than to go fore dibond/ryanbod or the like.
  like nobby says.. give him various options with the prices next to them.

  quote chunkielad:

  Try Acrylic sheet mate? Should hold up better.

  Acrylic sheet would be much more expensive than dibond mate.
