Smoked Plexi

Pages: << < (6/8) > >>

Miguelsluma:

dont want to be hyjacking topics, but since i am at the point of choosing material if have similar questions. Ive found a site (http://www.bouwplastics.nl/)  in my country which has all sorts of 'tinted plexi' (yellow orange, green etc). would the light or dark brown be the same as what you guys call 'smoked'? And secondly, would it be wise to get smoked glass if ill be using the same tv to hook my consoles on?

Got my piece of glass from them last week.  Fast delivery (to Canada) and the glass looks great.

No, smoked will be gray not brown.

I, too wonder which grey to get ... dark? Light?  ???

MazzMn:

From what I have read I think people like Grey more than the brownish tint. I can't find the thread but I thought someone said that the brownish tint can discolor the games.
I ordered the light grey cause it was much cheaper at the store in my town. I like it, I have nice oak wood underneath the glass, it doesnt distract from the game. Though I felt that in one game (Duke Nukem) things were a little dark and I plan to tweak the game settings.

I noticed in the store that the dark grey sample seemed to have more glare.
Here is a new pic to give you an idea (probably looks more dark than it is from this angle)
