what material should i use stainless steel or aluminium?
I have a customer that wants an info panel sign, to go outside his new building that will have his tenants company names on. But he wants to be able to take down tenants names that have moved out. First I gave him a quote of an Ashby sign system that he liked. But now he wants the same but made from stainless steel. If I got Ashby’s to quote for the sign in a mill finish would that look like brushed stainless steel or will I have to get a company to manufacture it for me. And if I do have to have it made from stainless steel, does anyone know of a good manufacture to would make a good job.
Thanks for your help

Mill finish ally will look rubbish and oxidise.
Brushed stainless can be OK and whilst small lettering will adhere it isn’t the best surface.
Lettering removed could leave some outlining.
I did one with the main company name etched and infilled then other resident companies done in vinyl.Try Hallmark

Anodised alum has a brushed kind of look to it

Thanks Peter,
I’ve had a quote from Hallmark. They were the only company to answer my needs, so I will be going with them. That’s if my customer can get up off the floor after I’ve gave them the price lol
