Are Clearlay™ vinyl film and sheets suitable for outdoor applications? Not really. Although they may be suitable for some shorter term outdoor projects, they are not made to tolerate high temperatures or excessive exposure to UV light. Long term exposure to the elements can cause the material to yellow, become brittle, or turn hazy. So we cannot recommend them for outdoor applications.
The best products we stock for outdoor use are HDPE and polypropylene. However, it is possible for us to custom source formations of vinyl that are designed to last outdoors for a specific period of time. Many outdoor sign materials are made out of vinyl designed to last five years or more: Please contact us for more information.
