Needed: similar material to plexi

(1/3) > >>

crashwg:
Does anyone know where I can fine a similar material to plexi but black and "light blocking"?

Sephroth57:
smoked plexiglass seems to be the material of choice. i dont know where it is but there was a thread where someone posted comparison of smoked vs regular and smoked made it look way better. as for where to get it, im not sure. home depot maybe?

orntar:
don't know about that (light blocking i think would be the deal breaker anyhow) but how bout painting the back. i think that looks real slick. and if you get enough coats it should block light real well. you could even back it with heavy black poster vboard after you paint it.

Brad Lee:
^^ Ill vouch for that

Get a piece of plexi, spray 2-3 coats of black onto the back surface. If thats still not dark enough to block the light, spray a coat or 2 of the grey 'primer' stuff, thats quite a bit hevier

Sephroth57:
umm am i missing something? were talking about plexi for going over the monitor bezel. you can see through paint??
