    Hi all,

    I’ve been asked for some ‘copper’ colour vinyl (metallic finish if poss) for a sign that’s going outdoors.

    Mostly use Hexis vinyls – but they have nothing like.
    Pantone ref is 876c

    Does anyone know where I could get a close match from please

    (?)
    Cheers

    creative films definitely do it Nancy. we bought a few hundred metres of it last year. prices seem to vary allot on amount ordered. we paid about £2.10 a metre 610wide copper MIRROR polyester film. but paid about £1.00 per metre more 6 months later when the order was’nt as big. still… got a good service and the vinyl/polyester films are pretty good quality too, so who am i to argue. 😀

    Hi Nancy, got a feeling you are in my neck of the woods, on page 61 of the hexis catalogue there is a metallic bronze, looks more like copper to me than bronze, worth a look!! Ref: KG9260. 😉

    Oracal 851- series metallic (092 copper), 7 years outdoors. Looks actually quite nice.
