I'm working on mural for the Community centre that I work for. It cannot be painted directly on the building (too much red tape)so we plan on painting it on a sheet material and fixing those to the building. The panels will be painted indoors so we need to use a low odor, low toxicity paint. 3mm dibond has been reccomended to us but I don't know what I can paint it with. I also need a contact for a Canadian supplier (with a good price). Also... Does anyone know the cost of a 5'x10' compared to a 4'x8'?
thanx

Erin, scuff the panels, then use 1 shot. Just open a window and use a fan. Now have some fun!

Hi Erin,

You can get Dibond from Acme Sign Supplies in Mississauga. Phone #905-672-0007. I'm not sure about larger sizes, but I think a 4x8 will run about $125.00

Hope this helps.

I buy most of my Dibond from Laird Plastics here in Florida but they have other branches up north.

These are the prices I buy it for from them.
5' X 10' 3 mil (1/8") Dibond aluminum sheet $135.71

4' X 8' 3 mil (1/8") Colors-Dibond aluminum sheet $85.71

4' X 8' 3 mil (1/8") White-Dibond aluminum sheet $79.02

You can paint it with anything you like working with. The finish it comes with is already good. Light scuff and you can start slinging.
