Has anyone tried this outside as a sign? Does it hold up in the rain?

It would not hold up in the rain, it's 'dry erase' but water will damage the material and the dry erase marker will run. The rain would probably get under the back and de-adhere it too.

I have not tried it in the rain, but I would think if you made sure there weren't any opening bubbles around the rim you would be ok. I think your main concern would be the sun dry rotting it and the adhesive leaving a mark. I have pulled it off and put it up 3x's so far.

yes... actually I believe two sides are - opposite of each other. I don't use this outdoors. We set it up in the house for play. You would definetly have to cover it up. I don't know how it would hold up in the rain.

It stands really well on a wire stand that goes in the ground. The sign is very sturdy so is not blown by the wind. It has slowed the drivers down on our street!!

We have this mounted on our front porch. It is protected from direct rain and sun. It might rust eventually if you have it out in the elements but it works great for people to drop things off for us in a secure place when we are not home.

I don't know how it would hold up in heavy rain, but it's great shelter for mild/moderate rain. I live in Oregon, and mostly use it for a sun shade, but have also spent time out while raining.

I have one, It's not meant to be used Outside. Certainly if you put it outside, it will work, but I wouldn't want to get it wet or leave it exposed to extreme weather. I don't see it being capable of withstanding the elements.

Agree with the othe two posters, it will stand up to a light shower but definitely not steady rain. It is padded well so it would take a bit of water to soak all they way through. It is matte fabric, not the shiny stuff the repels rain better.

I haven't used it in the rain, but I've definitely used it after it rained. I actually have it permenantly bolted to a car trailer that sits outside. I've had no issues.

We've had it outside since we bought it and its held up well. Although I can't say that means much. Its been on our apartment balcony where its shielded from direct sunlight and rain.

Sorry. I do not have the answer to how these labels will withstand weathering outdoors. I wondered how the adhesive will last along with if the letters fade or wash away.

I don't believe so. The plastic is very hard and thick. I used some plasticized foam core board attached with screws. For temporary/interchangeable signage, you might use 3M Velcro picture hangers. I attached my signage permanently and was concerned about a wind-proof, rain-proof sign.

Not water resistant at all if it's left outside. Perhaps can withstand a light rain moving from one place to another but that's it. I think you could help it a little with water proofer like what you use on tents, shoes, etc but that's just for a light protection.

It's pretty sturdy.... but I don't know about rain.. generally any electronic will fry when wet.. the timer is pretty well covered and sealed... I would say it would probably be ok for outside as long as you put it somewhere it won't get too wet.

Yes, it holds up to the rain. You have to make sure the tire has good coverage of the product.

They hold up fine in wet weather as they are an outside shade. I have 5 on my deck and it's rained several times and I've had no issues thus far.

I have used it in the rain and it was fine, but I wouldn't use it in a heavy storm or anything--it's very pretty but doesn't hold up to strong winds.

Haven't used it in rain but if covered I'm sure it would still work. It can be moved 5 ft fairly easily by one person as ling as it's not up an incline. It is heavy but comes with wheels you can attach.
