Wood, Brick, Stones, Sheets of glass, Steel, aluminum sheets. Door Handles, Water Bottles, Spray Bottles, Lamps, ceiling fan blades, hammers, planting pots, concrete, refrigerators, plant leaves, an employee, Paint buckets, bbq's, anything. Your question doesn't really ask much. You can apply vinyl to anything. The type of vinyl depends on the surface you are using. So your question really is a nothing question. What can you put vinyl on at home depot? Anything you can find at home depot.

Here's a crazy thought ... If you insist on playing in the sign industry wouldn't it make sense to study the industry and use the proper materials for the job?

Home Depot = Home Improvement Store

Sign Product Distributor = Sign Making Materials

even when primed on the 'non-treated' side, this **** expands and warps like crazy outdoors.

I SAID........SHORT TERM SIGNS.......and indoors only...... i have used this bathroom board for small signs in bars and restaurants/parts stores/machine shops...... where i didnt want the look of coro, and it would be in a place that didnt get much temp/moisture change. $12 dollars for 4 x 8 sheet...... bout same as CORO but looks a lot nicer.

Actually HD does sell coroplast, but its at ripoff prices

Weird request. Not much at all to buy at Home Depot for sign substrates, unless you're into lettering plumbing fixtures or ceiling fans, but tools, hardware, posts, and some other things you might need for installations are readily available there. I might buy some rattle cans, but vinyl doesn't usually get applied to that.

Oigi, why are almost all of your questions or requests from an unknown region of the sign industry ?? There's nothing wrong with being creative and finding new ways to do things, but you cop such an attitude when you're shown the errors of your ways.

This stuff works pretty good (if you can't find the right materials):

You need to seal the edges if you want it to last in the rain.
The smooth side will take a vinyl or you can wrap it with a banner print.

what are you really asking? if it is can you cheap out and buy something not made to be a sign material and sell it at dirt prices, then yes, you can find all kinds of stuff. I had a person call years back to say her wooden sign was peeling. I thought she was talking about the paint but it turned out it was an interior care door that some genius used to make a wooden sign.

ah. a sign hack AND a geography hack.
