Have to paint a 4ft by 10ft sign. It will be painted 100%. No vinyl. Anyone know the best vendor to purchase sign lettering paint? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Be prepared to charge accordingly.
I have a sign supply dealer here in Georgia that delivers to me once a week. If you order and the paint has to be shipped UPS they will charge a HAZMAT (hazardous materials) surcharge which I have been told can add around $25 or more to a quart of paint. One Shot quarts of bulletin enamels are around $20 - $25 a quart, they've doubled over the last 10 years, lettering enamels are even more expensive.
Be prepared to spend quite a bit extra. Maybe an old walldog in your area has some scraps of paint he would sell you. If it's been sealed tight it will last for years in the can.

That's true for lettering paints because of their flash point, but bulletins can ride totally free. Their flash is lower, therefore under the radar.
So for the OP.... if you're coating out, buy all bulletin and if you're going to use frsiket or vinyl patterns, you can also use bulletin. So, save yourself the headaches of HAZMAT an go bulletin all the way and roll it on.
