URGENT – how long will euroflute/correx last for outdoors?

[Lee Jones]

As long as you use a good quality primer / undercoat, and sand down bet……….. Sorry wrong thread.

12 months, no problems, have seen one down the road from me thats been there for atleast 4 years !

we fitted an 8′ x 4′ correx sign to a wall in June 2003 and its still up there now and still looks great.

Carrie 😀

Thanks guys 😀

So it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say it should outlast a banner left up permenantly then?

Also how does £194 for 4 off 8 by 4’s lettered up sound – reasonable I hope – supply only?

Thanks, Pete

Non-biodegradeable polyprop?

About fifty million years. 🙁

I would say too cheap. I would be selling them for quite a bit more than that.

4 correx sheets and approx 10m of vinyl ~ £200 – not enough IMHO

Cost of materials alone is about a hundred quid after you’ve taken application tape etc into account.

I’d have thought around £300 – £75 each would be more like it.

On reflection I can see that I’m perhaps a little on the low side.

Although I got materials to around £70 inc vat, doubled this up for my profit (running total £140ish) then 2 hours labour @ £25 making a grand total of £190 ish. If he wants delivery this will be a separate charge.

It seemed fair while rushing the quote, but when you look at £50/per panel it seems low.

Thanks everyone who chipped in, especially the funnies.
