The design you created for my wood sign is fantastic. I have never had so many compliments about a sign in the 10 years we have been open. The paint has kept its luster and our customer draw has increased by 20% since the wood sign went up. See you next time, |

Frequently Asked Questions About Custom Wood Signs
MDO Dura-Wood Sign boards are made of high quality plywood with the same adhesives used in marine plywood. A special hardwood face veneer - sanded before the overlay is applied - minimizes wood grain show-through, even after it's painted. The tough overlay is a high fiber sheet which has been treated with a resin formula for optimal paint adhesion yielding superior surface performance and much longer life than other wooden sign materials.
Our select MDO brand also features solid inner plys and a tight core gap which means fewer and smaller edge voids for greater weather resistance. No other wood painted sign stays as smooth for as long. Although the wooden panel itself is sealed at the factory with commercial primer and paint, the lettering and graphics are produced in vinyl and applied to the painted surface resulting in a premium quality wood painted sign.
Getting stuck with the wrong type of plywood for an outdoor wooden sign is a disaster waiting to happen.
Did you know the plywood boards available from popular home improvement warehouses are strictly for “interior use only”? As moisture seeps in, the plywood visibly reacts by swelling, delaminating, warping, cracking and rotting from the inside out. When new custom wood signs go bad so soon, it’s not only costly, it’s a bit discouraging as well.
Unfortunately for consumers, far too many sign companies mistakenly use these boards for permanent outdoor wood signs. These home building materials were never intended to be turned into outdoor wooden signs. It’s no wonder wood painted signs have gotten such a bad reputation over the years.
What's the alternative to these ordinary wood signs?
Rot-Safe™ Wooden Signs are true, weatherproof, exterior grade sign boards. The plywood core is made with the same waterproof adhesives used in marine plywood. And the ultra-smooth factory painted finish is so durable, Economy Grade Rot-Safe™ Wood Painted Signs are rated to last up to 3 years outdoors and Premium Grade Rot-Safe™ Wood Painted Signs are rated for 6-8 years outdoors.
Since raw material costs have remained virtually unchanged over the last 15 years, pricing for Rot-Safe™ Wooden Outdoor Signage is still surprisingly low. As a result, these wooden signs are quite popular with businesses, contractors and real estate agents.
Here in 2010, we still have wood painted signs in use today that were originally installed for our clients in 1989 that have never required replacing or repainting so if you need to display a permanent sign, wooden signs are still an excellent choice, provided the right type of wood is used.
The Rot-Safe™ Wood itself will outlast the artwork on your sign. Our uncoated Economy Grade Signs are rated for at least 3 years outdoors while our Premium Grade Signs coated with an optically clear, UV Protective Lamination are rated for a minimum of 5-8 Years outdoors. Wood signs can last for decades indoors.
Other rigid sign material options include ARMOUR-Wood, Dibond & Alumalite.
ARMOUR-Wood is slightly stronger than wood painted signs because it is reinforced with an aluminum shell and is the strongest of all the rigid sign panels.
Alumalite is a lighter weight rigid sign panel that is a little easier to handle and install than the thicker, heavier wooden signs. It doesn’t have quite as much panel strength as wood, but is still a highly durable product rated for 10 years outdoors.
Dibond is an even lighter weight rigid sign panel ideally suited for wall mounted signs, smaller post mounted signs and hanging signs. When you are looking for a product that is substantially stiffer than a standard gauge aluminum signs, Dibond is a solid choice.
