Colors shown are as close to actual painted sign panels as possible. Please call for color chip
samples if needed. Colors subject to availability. Check with your local distributor for availability.
Color variation is a characteristic of aluminum composite panels with brushed aluminum and
metallic paint finishes, and can vary on material purchased from different lots. In addition, grain
direction of brushed aluminum and metallic paint finishes must be considered in the design of the
panel installation. Opposing grain directions may create visible patterns and may not be acceptable
in the finished project. Laminators does not warrant a color match for these panels.
*Colors available by special order
14Fabrication Services
Let Laminators handle your sign fabrication services needs. As manufacturers and
fabricators of sign panels, we understand all the nuances of fabricating for time-
and cost-efficiency.
Save on time and labor costs by having us fabricate your digital print-ready
sign panel products. In many cases you may not be utilizing the entirety of
an ACM panel—you're cutting, bending, shaping, contouring, and so much
more. We'll cut, rout, and bend the panels to the exact specifications needed
for the project.
Because the panels are being fabricated by the same company that manufactures
them, we understand the best way to provide superior looking, ready-to-install
panels each and every time.

15Sign Applications
Choosing the right materials for any sign application can be a major obstacle. The sign products
are a fundamental part of the overall vision. It is important to choose your materials in the
design phase so that you can prepare for any special requirements, such as lighting, mounting,
or curved walls. In addition, exterior signage requires more durable materials that are fade
resistant and can withstand strong weather conditions. The final products should give off a
professional, yet comfortable feel to those that use them.
Laminators sign products do just that! Our panels are easy to install and can be fabricated simply
with standard carpentry tools. Available in multiple colors — factory-baked polyester painted
aluminum faces add high-gloss brilliance and rigidity; warranted not to crack, chip, flake, or peel.
Sign Panel Production Guide
The Sign Panel Production Guide provides updated technical information including additional
illustrations and step-by-step instructions. It covers the best practices from panel handling,
storage, prep and set-up to cleaning, cutting, routing and installing/mounting our panels.
The guide also outlines how to apply vinyl, films and paints as well as digital and screen
printing applications.

In many instances we recommend our Omega-Lite architectural panel for all architectural applications because of its superior flatness and 20-year paint
performance, many of our customers still choose to use our sign products for storefront fascias, gas station canopies, and awning-fill or replacement,
usually because of economics. For questions or recommendations, call 877.OMEGA.77 to speak with one of our knowledgeable sign representatives.
