    Default Good source for Corroplast sheets?

    Can anyone share their "best known methods" for obtaining corroplast? Is there anyplace to get smaller quantites affordably? I was debating designing some of my own shapes but with a cursory look, I could not find anyplace that carries the stuff.

    Denver Sign Supply should be a good source. I have used them in the past for other stuff but not Corroplast. At a cst of $.94 per sheet of 18"x24" it is cheap stuff.

    http://www.denversignsupply.com/ go to their catalog, then choose Substrates, then Corrigated Plastics.

    Sign Warehouse also has Corroplast. Her you get 10 packs or 50 packs. A 10 pack of 36x24 is $22.00 http://www.signwarehouse.com/c-SSCP3624.html

    I have gone over there yet but I’m told that some Home Depot’s have it right next to the Plexiglas, Acrylic, Lexan, etc.

    They do, but you will pay a premium! My Home Depots have a 18"x36" sheet for $8.00. For one sheet that isn't bad, but if you need a lot Ouch!

    Hmmm, after the elections, I could help clean up... ;-)

    I never thought about the sign shops- that would be a place to start. I want to try to avoid the shipping as I am pretty sure that will be pricey unless someone offers free shipping.... I will take a look at the online places also...

    THX all!!

    My Home Depot has white 48 x 36 for $8. Better than James Depot but still not a deal if you need multi sheets. I got one and I think I'll need one more.
