Fabrication & Installation Tips
Cutting: Use a fine-tooth saw, circular saw, or laser cutter. Score and snap works for thinner sheets (2mm–3mm).
Drilling: Use standard drill bits at slow speeds. Support the sheet on both sides to prevent cracking.
Bending: Heat with a strip heater or heat gun to form curves and angles. Acrylic becomes pliable at approximately 160°C.
Bonding: Use ACRI-BOND 105 solvent cement for strong, clear joints.
Polishing: Flame-polish edges for a crystal-clear finish, or use buffing compounds for a professional look.
Care & Maintenance
- Clean with warm soapy water and a soft microfibre cloth
- Avoid abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or paper towels that can scratch
- Dry with a soft cloth to prevent water spots
- Minor scratches can be buffed out with acrylic polish
- Store flat to prevent warping
