I have a customer who had multiple sintra signs made about 10 years ago. Some of the signs have been broken but most are still fine. They want to replace some signs using the same color of sintra (Teal) with white lettering. Does anyone know of a source for 6mm Teal expanded PVC
Sintra, Celtec, Trovicel, or whatever....just has to be Teal and 6mm. Thanks

Tony, Sintra should be pretty readily available from a number of sources, but if the signs are outside, good luck matching the color. Some of these PVC products don't hold color too well.
I have had particular bad luck with Trovicel fading out. I get most of my plastics from Tubelite, who has plants in many areas. They sell Ex-Cell brand, which I've had decent luck with, although I don't use much, color-wise. They do have a teal color, but you may have a color match issue.

Thanks Dale...I'll give them a try. You're dead on about the fade factor...this client will be OK with the fade as long as the color is reasonably close.
