Hi
i'm after 2 pieces of aluminium pls
450mm x 90mm thickness prob 2mm but don't mind if it's 1 or 3
prob brushed as they will show and i think if it's polished it will scratch too easily

with rounded corners not fussed about how rounded as long as they are rounded so not sharp

i'm happy to pay you for them and postage etc

i want to sub on them so obviously they need to be the right type (if there's a right type) lol i've never done subbing on ali before
hence why i need 2 just in case i wreck the 1st one lol

thanks steve

I have loads of metal but dont have this size. I doubt it you find it anywhere iam affraid. This size need to be cut to the order i think.
Any way... Is your press big enough to press 450mm long blanks? ??


If you want to just try aluminium and see how it press i got loads of business cards and clock faces that i can send you few for testing.

the design i'll be doing i can do it in 2 stages without a problem

hopefully someone might get the ali in sheets and be able to cut a couple of bits for me

if not i'll pop down and see a metal company somewhere

thanks for the offer Paul

Metal company won't have sublimation ali - does it not have to be coated?.

Found this smitch - may be of interest.

I don't think BMS do your size but Transfer press do!

We cut any size but don't have brushed silver - only white and polished silver.

Sorry Martin, I was looking at the max size of your sub metal and not the sub ali, my apologies.

Hi guys
thanks for the replies

Martin would the polished scratch?
it's for a switch panel on the dash of my boat
i'm sure i've posted a thread about it before

basically i have 11 toggle switches that i want to print the info underneath the switches

but because of where it is it may get things laid on it etc

i did wonder if it had a special coating or not as i've never used it i wasn't sure but now i know

Smitch, get some clear vinyl (the sign stuff) and laminate your ali after printing.

ok thanks
