What size edge cap do I use for 4mm coroplast

[streator scott]

Yeah I just needed to order some edge cap for 4mm coroplast blanks
What size fits this thickness of board?

Thank you

4mm ??


You had the answer in your question. Now I'm confused.

Anyway, more importantly.... why ??

Your kiddin right?

I believe the edge cap costs more than the coro...... Why would you ever even think of doing that?

Depends on which direction the flutes are running <- Just messing around

Are you the same guy who was looking for street sign templates that you already had?

I've used J-Trim from Lowes. Comes in 4' lengths. Home Depot has more finishes but they only carry 18"

You might also want to look through an Outwater Plastics catalog... http://www.outwatercatalogs.com/lg_display.cfm/catalog/2010_master_catalog/page/94

3mil edgecap is cheaper to use, but harder to find.

Ive put edge cap on coroplast before. Whats the big deal? All the edge cap is in standard sizes not metric.

I just checked:

You guys are nerds.

 

[streator scott]

Yeah I was wrong. I dunno this is the newbie forum. Im asking an honest question. Anyways thinking about it, I probably didn't edge coroplast, but I would like to finish the edges, thats all. I've read the suggestions, and thanks.

Nerds that know coro signs are temporary signs that don't need edge caping LOL
Just to let you know I'm messing with you.

Welcome to 101 and get ready for the ride

If you don't mind me asking how will these coro signs be used?

 

[jiarby]

I would like to finish the edges

why? just use a better substrate.

Coro, edge cap? I won't comment on this, not worth the effort!

Ye it is.. I use it a lot. I like the way it looks when at a presentation or a seminar and the edge has a nice trim look ..
