Plexiglass and Smoked Glass

<< < (2/9) > >>

Thanks for all the responses. I guess I should have specified, the plexi I need is for the control panel and the glass is for the monitor area. I'll ask the glass guy here if they carry Greylite 14, I know they can order some things, maybe they can get it. If I go with the Greylite would that mean I wouldn't need a bezel for my monitor due to the darkness?

KonkeyKong, what part of Iowa are you from? I live in the Quad Cities, please let me know the store if you are in the same area.

Does anyone have a picture comparing the plain glass and graylite?  I would like to see the difference so when I buy it I know what I want.  It will be for my cocktail table and I may want graylite in the center.

Czapala:
Just bumping to see if anyone has pics for comparison.

I'm using this stuff and it hides construction imperfections great ;D

EDIT: This is plexi, sorry... no glass pics there.

I went with the Greylite 14 because most people on here recommended it. It is quite a bit darker than the smoked glass, it looks almost black when nothing is shinning through it. The smoked glass (or grey glass as the glass guy called it) was quite easy to see through but seemed like it would show too much when the monitor is shinning through. The Greylite cost me about $5-$10 ($48 for 26" x 25") more than the smoked would have, but seemed like the right choice.

The glass guy claimed that Greylite 14 use to be called Greylite 31, but it said right on the glass that is was Greylite 14. Just a note for those having trouble finding it.
