Umm... Plexiglass is a brand name acrylic. So acrylic is no more scratch resistent than Plexi. Unless Home Depot sells some cheap ---steaming pile of meadow muffin--- pretending to be Plexi. |

Plixiglass is a brand that makes lexan. I dont think my make acrylic though. |

As was said Plexiglass is a brand name like Kleenex, it's an acrylic. Lexan is actually also just a brand name, it's a polycarbonate. Acrylic = Plexiglas, Perspex, Optiplex, Lucite(what I use), etc. Acrylic is more resistant to scratches and is therefore the obvious choice for covering a CP. The only disadvantage is that it can crack easier when you're drilling it. |
