2 smoked plexi questions
« on: December 24, 2003, 05:19:04 pm »
I went to a local plastic store and they had 5 different shades of smoked plexi. Which one are you guys using for your cabs?
How well do light guns work with it?

Be careful going too dark if you plan on using a light gun.  Usually, these want as much light as possible and dark shades will cause difficulties.

If you aren't using a gun, the "dark gray" is my recommendation.  The light gray might work ok with a light gun, but I can't say for sure as I don't use one.

Some say that the bronze color works ok, but I'd avoid it myself.  The gray is more of a neutral color.
