I know there has been several threads on making new glider placards to
replace old, hard to read ones. However, I think I have just found
something new that might be the best idea yet.

See: http://www.horizonsisg.com/alumajet/...-aluminum.html

These days, "archival quality, UV resistant ink" is available from
most inkjet manufacturers which, with a good clear coat, should make
very durable and highly attractive labels and placards.

AlumaJet sheets aren't cheap at $60 for a 10 sheet pack but the
quality might be worth it for some.
