Teardrops n Tiny Travel Trailers

I posted a long time back about looking for a trailer in Calgary. Well, Im now needing something to go on the outside of the almost completed teardrop.

Since I built 56" high, 10 foot long, and 56 inches wide ( or somrthing close to those), I really need 5x10 sheets. Since I cant find that anywhere round here I started looking for alternatives.
One of the alternatives is 4x10 aluminized steel, which I can get colored. Now, this is about 50 lbs a sheet. How much does 4x10 aluminium in 0.032 weigh?
I guess the steel is also harder to cut?

Any thoughts? I think the weight will be too much, so Im probably going with 4x10 alumiium which I can get at a pretty good price.

Thanks

Paul, not sure what all available to you in Calgary, I'm up in Grande Prairie. But when I built mine back in Ontario, I found my aluminum at a Race Shop, they built late model modifies. And it was the best price I found also

Aluminized steel (Aluminum Killed or Drawing Quality) is a alloy of steel sheet we use in the automotive industry, not as a non-rusting metal, but as an alloy that shapes easier than "regular" sheet metal. The process is something along the line of X amount of aluminum is added to the pot of molten carbon steel at the foundry before being rolled into sheet.

It still rusts just like steel. Well, because it is 90+% carbon steel I guess.
