keep shopping around, 1/2" colors (at least black & many blues) are not *that* much more than clear.

I posted on your other thread a price of $310 for colored Plexiglas GM and it was only that high because it did have to be shipped from another store. The list price when in stock was $225. So, you can find it for a decent price. That was a GE Polymershapes location by the way, I don't know, maybe you have one of those near you?

I just use spraypaint. That acrylic sheet seems pretty expensive; is there a reason why you'd prefer it over paint?
