the large , aprox. 24 inch reproduction signs that are baked enamel. does anyone know how well these hold up to the elements?
thinking of hanging one outside and wondering how bad they fade or rust.
thanks

They should hold up fine outside. It also dont hurt to clean & wax them with car wax to help repel the rian & some of the sun

I have a customer that hangs a Texaco for 2 years now in our northern weather. Looks like new.

His secret: (as mentionned) wax spring and fall.

I have a 'Magnolia' 24 inch repro sign that is 12 years old, and has been hung outside for 4 years. It still looks great. I sprayed a coat of UV retardant clear coat on it before hanging it outside. I dont think you'll have a problem displaying one of these baked enamel signs in the elements.
