I need a source for aluminum panels that are made to size/shape and painted or powder coated. I would prefer a place in Florida (Orlando/Daytona area). Would need to be at least 1/8" thickness. Immediate need is approx. 8'x3'.
I do not have a proper setup for painting mill finish aluminum in house.
Any info. would be greatly appreciated.

check prices! I've always tried to be a loyal customer to my suppliers, but times seem to be requiring changes. I recently needed a couple 4x10 sheets of .080, and bought them from my usual source. I get a call from a friend that saw what I paid and said I was getting ripped. I called another supplier and found them for $100 a sheet less. I called whom I bought them from and told them of the difference and they couldn't budge on their price. I'm gonna do some comparisons now.
