| Using smoked plexiglas - Hey RandyT! |
| << < (14/20) > >> |
| RandyT:
For anyone who is wondering: My experience has shown there to be 4 varieties (more if you count thickness, but I'm not :) ). Bronze or Gray, light or dark. Those are the options. If you have the luxury of selecting what you want, I recommend Gray, dark. BTW, I haven't tested it with a transmission meter, but I'd be surprised if it were over 30%. RandyT |

Thanks to Rampy for pointing this thread out in another related thread. I'm only posting in it to bring it back to the top. I think a lot of the new guys like myself who are just building a cab could benefit from reading through this one. I belive I'm sold on using tinted plexi in mine. -S |

i assume grey tinted glass will give same result as smoked plexy - thats what i've just ordered for my cocktail cab. |

I see you brought this dinosaur back to life too ;D Glass is better than plexi though. Otherwise people would use plexi in their windows. |

Make sure it's tempered though. For a cabinet, it doesn't really matter. Good luck finding the tint talked about in this thread in glass though. If you do, you can bet it will cost 5-10X more than the plexi (I work in the glass industry). And some do use plexi in their "windows", it depends on the application. RandyT |
