Hi,

Customer wants to know the difference in weight between Dibond (2.9kg per sq. meter of 2mm)

and MDO.......
haven't had any luck finding the weight for MDO.
Does anyone know this?

Corey....what thickness are you planning on using?

After you decide on thickness, you can use 0.55g/cm3 to find the approximate weight.
