ACM Panels

[Reyj22]

Does anyone know of a supplier of colored ACM panels? I am specifically looking for a 3mm in Dark Grey.

yes all of them carry colored panels, just contact your local supplier

however, if you have to have a certain shade / color of grey then you are better off either painting or doing a vinyl color change unless you are looking for a high QTY.
seems last time we looked into this there was a 20 sheet minimum for custom colors

Thanks for the response.
I have contacted several vendors but they don't seem to carry anything but the brushed colors...gold, silver and I need a dark grey. This project will require 26 sheets that I will be doing direct UV printing on. There are quite a few signs so applying vinyl would be a bit of a pain. We can't apply the vinyl to the 4x8 sheets and then route out the signs as it chews up the vinyl edges.
If you know of a vendor that may carry different colors please let me know.

Try looking for architectural panels instead of sign panels. I don't remember the name of the brand, but we quoted a job to reface a storefront with some panels that were similar to ACM but came in more colors. One of our sign suppliers also distributed commercial panels.

Contact Dibond directly and see if they can make using your color

If you use white, can't you direct print the grey background as well?

We could but these signs are going outside and I never feel like ink adheres well to ACM even with the use of a promoter. We do have the
option of laminating the sheets after printing but since my customer just wants dark charcoal grey panels I thought it may be easier to just
purchase the material in that color.
