Where would I get?!

Do you know those big advertising signs you see along football matches and sometimes outside venues like mcdonalds and stuff. They're like a waterproof plastic or something? Anyway I was wondering where I would get one at if anyone could help me out, I dont even know what they're called haha

TIA
Cath

    Find a sign you like and phone up whoever it's advertising and ask who did it. They'll be chuffed you noticed their sign and hopefully will tell you happily enough.

    Is called coriboard. Only has an outside life span of about 3 months. Blacksheep, Alexander Boyds, or any sign manufacturer would probably give you off-cuts, but is about £15 for an 8x4 sheet. Old signs at end of season are usually scrapped, if they last that long!!

    Thanks everyone, I have the most awful fencing out my back and with it being a rental I dont want to replace it, so I'm going to use that stuff in bright colours along the top and put some willow along the bottom to screen it and make a bit of colour for the summer. I think it should work and at least I can do what ever design suits me.

    Thanks again
