Hey guys,
I have a request for a few small signs and I wanted to get your thoughts on the best materials for the job. The request is for a metallic looking sign like in the picture. I have the freedom to design it up how I feel best. My question are as follows:
1. Whats the correct thickness and best source for a brushed aluminum sheet for this blank? The more specific the better!

2. Dimensional letters would be made with PVC. Is there a better material for this? What specific type and sources ore there for this?

Thanks, Ryan
