Sign Material Choices For Your GMAC Yard Signs

Most real estate professionals know they can choose from the options of size, shape, and design when it comes to their GMAC yard signs, but few consider a fourth choice - the sign material of your GMAC yard signs. In fact, many real estate professionals don't even realize there are different types of sign materials for their GMAC yard signs. This article covers some of the different sign materials used in making GMAC yard signs. This will allow you to make the best choice for your business.


Aluminum GMAC Yard Signs

Aluminum is the most expensive material for GMAC yard signs. However, just because aluminum is more expensive than other sign materials does not mean it can't be affordable, especially because aluminum GMAC yard signs last the longest of all the sign materials.

GMAC yard signs usually come in .040 and.063 thicknesses and in 21.5" x 36", 18" x 24", 18" x 30", or 30" x 24" sizes. Aluminum GMAC yard signs feature a high gloss finish and they will not rust if they are scratched or chipped.

Aluminum is an ideal material for GMAC yard signs, hanging signs, directional signs, and open house signs because it is lightweight yet rigid. When shopping for aluminum GMAC yard signs, choose a sign company that offers at least a five year warranty against chalking or rusting. This ensures your aluminum GMAC yard signs will last.


Reflective Aluminum GMAC Yard Signs

The most expensive type of aluminum sign, reflective aluminum GMAC yard signs, provides superior visibility at night. These GMAC yard signs usually come in a .063 thickness and feature a 3M industrial grade reflective vinyl surface that provides light reflection when it is dark outside. Reflective aluminum GMAC yard signs should not rust with scratched or chipped and should have a life of at least five years.


Polyethylene GMAC Yard Signs

A form of plastic, polyethylene is an economical, weather durable, and lightweight material. These GMAC yard signs have a matte finish, superior color and ink adhesion, and are most commonly available in a .100 thickness.

The downsides to polyethylene GMAC yard signs is that they can sometimes appear transparent in bright areas and they tend to bow with age. Polyethylene GMAC yard signs should last approximately 3 years when they come from a quality sign manufacturer.


PVC GMAC yard signs

PVC, another type of plastic, is another common material for GMAC yard signs. PVC signs are rigid and they will not bow like polyethylene, but they do scratch easily. With a life expectancy of three years, PVC GMAC yard signs become brittle as they age. These signs feature a beautiful high gloss finish and come in a .100 thickness.


Cor-X GMAC Yard Signs

Cor-X is another name for corrugated plastic. It is a great material for GMAC yard signs, as it is weatherproof and inexpensive. Cor-X is lightweight and will not yellow with age, but it may also appear translucent bright light like polyethylene. Available in a 1/8" thickness or a 3/8" thickness, Cor-X GMAC yard signs should last 12 - 18 months.
