Abrasion resistant acrylic?

[Andrew Lenz Jr.]

It's been a while since we've had call for it, but who makes scratch-resistant acrylic (Plexiglas) sheets these days?

And what distributors stock it?

Last time I tried to order it a few years ago, our distributor no longer had it available.

Thanks,
Andrew

Tru Vue has both Optium which is AR & Anti Abrasive, and a anti abrasive only version. Any TV distributor should have it or be able to get it. But sit down before you get the price quote. There is not as big a difference in the price as you might think.

Tru Vue indeed.
LJ supplied me with a a cardboard surround and in it three pieces of acrylic.
uv filtering acrylic, AR laminated glass and Optium Museum acrylic.

When I recertified, PPfa sent me an envelope of new samples. One of them was scratch resistant acrylic by TV.
