STENCILS & SUPPLIES
If you need to paint lettering directly on the surface of material not suitable for signage or vinyl lettering, stencils are also available.

Rough-finish wood, drum barrels and other surfaces in industrial areas may be better signed with custom stencils. Stencil materials include plastic, mylar and brass; Rollers, ink pads and ink for stencils are also available.

Call The Graphics Factory at 250-723-6227 for details.

Peel & Stick - Perfect for DIY Projects!

The Graphics Factory can help fulfill your creative needs too! We can supply custom-cut vinyl lettering that you self-apply in your home, in the nursery or kids’ rooms, your workshop, on your car or boat - wherever you like. As long as the application surface is clean, smooth and dry, you should be good to go.

Sign Materials

Stacks Image 293

Plastics

Coroplast, our most popular sign material, is a corrugated sheet of plastic, similar in look to cardboard, and available in multiple colours. Lightweight and versatile, coroplast is suitable for signs being used inside, and is easily weatherproof to be used outside in the shorter term. Most real estate signs are produced on coro.

For a smoother, non-corrugated finish, we also offer sintra and styrene, both solid-core plastics.

Banner

Our banner material is a heavy gauge, plasticized canvas. It is readily available in 22”, 28” and 34” widths on a roll, with other sizes also available to order. Our banners have grommets at each corner, and at regular intervals along the top and bottom edges.
