I have some access to tag-ends of highway-grade reflectorized
sign material -- the same kind you see on highway signs -- and, 
indeed, from the same rolls. It's amazing what one can pick out

The only problem is that the really good signs get stolen.

Oh, yes, there're lots of different colors: red, blue, green, 
white, yellow, orange, brown.
