In days of old when knights were bold and damsels in distress.
Hi Damsel
I suppose you are looking for a knight in shining armour? Well I don’t think I measure up to that.
Have you considered the service of a local sign writer ? By the time you have purchased all the materials it may well be more cost effective to subcontract the complete project to a sign writer.
He will be in a position to supply you signs that are completely waterproof and all you will need to do is put them up without worrying your pretty head on what to make them out of.

You and use a WBP exterior plyboard and if properly sealed/painted (particularly the edges, then this will be OK. No need for marine ply.
If you use anything less than 18mm, then the board may twist if the sign is free standing.
An alternative may be to cut the letters out of a sheet of acylic
Incidently isn't a 3:1 ratio a bit narrow for a letter font?
