 Sintra is
an expanded, high density PVC plastic sheet material with many excellent properties for
sign and display work. It resists water and most chemicals, is lightweight, fire retardant
and fabricates with common techniques. It can be an economical choice over plywood and
Masonite, especially when labor and finishing costs are considered.Cutting and Sawing - Sintra up to 3mm thick can be cut with a knife. Flat Sintra can be die cut with steel rule dies, warming the sintra slightly to achieve smooth edges. Fastening - Sintra can be nailed within about 1/4" from the edge without splitting. Screws or blind rivets can also be used. Remember to allow for substantial temperature changes; Sintra expands 0.05 mil/ft. per degree F. Painting - Recommended paints are vinyls, acrylic laquers and 2 part polyurethanes. Paint can be applied by brush, spray gun, roller, or dipping. Finishes should not be forced dried in an oven. Primers are not required if the surface is dry and clean. Silk Screen methods give excellent results and most printing inks used for rigid PVC give good results. Forming - Sintra can be thermoformed, vacuum formed, or heat bent in a far shorter time than most conventional plastics. |
