Tom,
This product is called "Corroplast". We use it here for signs also, but it
is not very easy to form or make take a good bend. It comes in different
thicknesses and colors. If you did use this product I would suggest
covering it with some kind of textured vinyl. Otherwise people will think
it is cardboard. Good Luck
