Metal Signs in Tampa — Aluminum (Standard Sizes) & ACM (Custom) | Reflective, Brushed & Standoffs
Need a sign that looks upscale and survives Florida weather? Choose Aluminum for rigid, street-grade panels or ACM (Aluminum Composite) for ultra-flat, lightweight wall signs. We print full-color UV for crisp detail and add the right finishing—holes, corners, lamination, standoffs—so installation is fast and clean.
Built to last: rust-proof, fade-resistant, weather-ready
Two constructions: Aluminum (solid) or ACM/Dibond® (aluminum faces + composite core)
Upgrade looks: reflective for night, brushed for modern metal sheen
Mount fast: pre-drilled holes, standoffs, VHB tape, U-channel posts

FAQs
Aluminum vs. ACM—what’s the difference?
Aluminum is solid metal (heavier, very durable). ACM/Dibond® is two aluminum skins with a composite core—lighter, flatter, perfect for walls.
Do I need reflective?
Use reflective aluminum for night visibility (parking, safety, wayfinding).
Will it rust or fade?
Aluminum/ACM don’t rust. UV inks + optional lamination resist fade/scratches.
Which thickness for parking?
.080 aluminum is the classic standard; .063 works for private lots.
How do I mount to a wall without visible screws?
Use 3M VHB or standoffs for a premium architectural look.
