    Hi

    Depending on the size of the letters, they are normally made from 0.9mm descaled stainless steel, a standard grade for the material would be grade 304. The returns are then soldered together. An etch primer is then sprayed on the letters, a base coat then a 2 pack acrylic top coat is applied to your specified colour. These would then be ‘cooked’ for the paint to go solid and ready for use.

    This is the basic’s behind stainless letters. If you require more technical info, just write back, and when im back in the office on tuesday, i will find out what ever else you require.

    Spec’s as required

    Soldered together using Blowpipe Solder 40/60 Grade C BS219 (contains lead)
    This is used after applying MA Flux & Bakers Fluid no5 (For ‘Keying’)
