.

Q: How do you clean and maintain aluminum signs?
A: To clean aluminum signs, simply use a soft cloth with mild soap and lukewarm water. Rinse off any residue and dry with a lint-free towel to prevent water spots.

More info on Custom Aluminum Signs

What are aluminum signs?

Aluminum signs are lightweight, rust-free, and highly durable signage solutions used for both indoor and outdoor applications. From custom aluminum business signs for storefronts to outdoor aluminum parking signs, these signs combine long-term durability with a polished, professional finish.

Our aluminum signs are available in multiple styles, including custom cut aluminum signs, embossed aluminum plaques, aluminum sandwich board signs, and reflective aluminum traffic signs. Whether you need a simple 12x18 aluminum sign blank for a DIY project or a large double-sided aluminum sign for high-traffic areas, the flexibility of aluminum makes it a go-to choice.

Why should you choose aluminum signs for indoor or outdoor use?

Aluminum remains one of the most popular materials in signage because it balances strength with affordability. Unlike wood or steel, aluminum doesn’t warp or rust, making it ideal for business branding, road signs, property signage, and safety communication.

Industry surveys show that over 70% of small businesses say signage directly influences customer visits (Sign Research Foundation, 2022). Our internal surveys confirm this: customers using custom aluminum business signs reported a 22% increase in walk-in inquiries compared to non-branded storefronts.

What are the key features of aluminum signs?

  • Durability: Weather-resistant, rust-proof, and designed for long-term outdoor use.
  • Finish options: Gloss, matte, reflective, or anodized aluminum signs.
  • Sizes: Standard options like 18x24 aluminum sign blanks to oversized 4x8 aluminum panels.
  • Printing styles: Full-color custom printed aluminum signs, UV-resistant ink, or screen printing.

Can aluminum signs be used for personal projects?

Yes. Many people use custom aluminum address signs, garden signs with aluminum stakes, or even decorative aluminum wall signs for homes and farms.

How do aluminum signs compare to other materials?

  • Acrylic vs Aluminum Signs: Acrylic provides a glossy, modern finish but aluminum wins in outdoor durability.
  • Dibond vs Aluminum Signs: Dibond (an aluminum composite panel with plastic core) is lighter and cost-effective for large prints, while solid aluminum signs withstand harsher conditions.
  • PVC vs Aluminum Signs: PVC is inexpensive for temporary indoor use, while aluminum signs last years outdoors.

According to the International Sign Association, metal signs like aluminum last up to 10 years outdoors, nearly double the lifespan of PVC alternatives.
