Choosing The Right Metamark Vinyl For Sign-Making Applications

​The whole point of a sign is to stand out, to be noticed and to catch people’s attention. Whether it’s a shop front, a warning or an advertisement you want your sign to be seen. The vinyl you use to make it matters a lot.

Quality vinyl will elevate your products and keep your customers coming back for more. It doesn’t matter whether you're kitting out a van, refreshing a brand or crafting vibrant indoor displays, the right vinyl makes the job easier and the results longer lasting.

Metamark
has earned its reputation as a go-to brand for sign-makers, and with good reason. But with several ranges to choose from, how do you know which one to pick? Let’s look at the different options and help you find the perfect Metamark sign vinyl for your next job.

Why Choose Metamark?

Metamark is a well-known and respected name in the signage industry, renowned for producing reliable, high-performance vinyl that cuts cleanly, weeds easily and applies beautifully. It will get you off to a flying start if you’re new to the print game but equally it can inject new life into your services even if you’ve years of experience behind you. In short, Metamark products offer the consistency and quality other manufacturers simply can’t match.

The Power Of The Metamark 7 Series

If you're looking for a solid all-rounder, the Metamark 7 Series is a wonderful choice. This premium-grade polymeric calendered vinyl is a favourite for good reason - it’s perfect for vehicle graphics, window signage and most general-purpose applications. With durability of up to eight years for black and white, seven for colour and five for metallics, it’s built to last outdoors and still looks sharp indoors.

The 7 Series also offers excellent handling characteristics too. It cuts crisply, weeds easily (even for fine detail) and lays flat during application. That makes it ideal sign vinyl for cutting, especially when time is of the essence, or you have an intricate design to reproduce.

Bring Designs To Life With Coloured Vinyl

When you need colour, Metamark’s range of coloured vinyl is packed with vibrant shades and subtle tones to suit any brand or creative idea. From classic primary colours to more muted, contemporary hues, the selection of more than 90 shades is impressive while the consistency is excellent across batches.

All Metamark coloured vinyl comes in both gloss and matt finish, giving your final signs a clean, professional look.

Choosing Vinyl Based On Application

Just as signs vary greatly in their style, usage and size so does vinyl - not all vinyls are meant for every surface or situation. For short-term displays or indoor projects, the M2 or M4 Series can be more cost-effective. But for longer-term or more demanding applications, stick with the 7 Series or try the Metamark MD5 for great durability and conformability.

If you're working on textured or curved surfaces, for example if you’re making vehicle wraps, a cast vinyl like the Metamark Colour Change may be the better fit. And if you're not sure,  Signmaster’s team is always on hand to point you in the right direction.

The Best Vinyl For Signage

Choosing the best vinyl for signage will ultimately depend on three factors – the budget, the purpose of the signage and longevity. With Metamark, you know you're working with top-quality materials across a range of price points to fit every budget.

So, whether you're cutting bold graphics or fine detail, creating something short-term or built to last, there's a Metamark sign vinyl that fits the bill and we can help you choose it.
