Can you make your own? We have made a lot of these. 26GA cold rolled steel (cheap) adhered to 1/4" PVC with print and dry erase laminate on top, really great for custom sizes!

How do you fix your steel to PVC? I imagine you install the print directly on the steel?

Yes....mount the print to steel just like you would any other sign.
We use a double sided tape to mount the finished steel to PVC. It's a 30" roll....looks like laminate. Peel one side, apply to steel in laminator. Then peel the second sheet off and mount to PVC.

Where can I buy a roll of the 30" double sided tape?

most any glossy anti graffiti laminate should work as dry erase also

ive even used just regular stock gloss but that gets nasty after a bit

Lowes's or HomeDepot have 4'x8' sheets of shower enclosure board. It's 1/8" thick. We've used it quite a few times. It's about $13.00 per sheet.

It's only 48" by 96" so it might not work for you, this time.
