I'm gonna do some DiBond signs. They will facing the sun most of the day. You think I should get the pre-painted (Red) or just paint it with 1-Shot plus hardener? If it was summer' I'D shoot them outisde with a automotive paint. Right now we are getting late winter snow. The signs are made of four full sheets. Opinions plezzzee!

Prepainted red - I have a couple billboards about 10 years old on the prepainted red that still look excellent - panels painted on aluminum about the same time have all but faded.

Just check up on the particular brand-Dibond might be polyester coated, Alupanel might be a bit different...maybe a baked enamel-type... it pays to check first.
