Jurgy Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 Anyone know where to get a sheet of Black Plexi-glass. I really only need it to be 40"x22". Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brooks Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 Home Depot sells black sheets of plexi. Don't know how large they are, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lmluckenbach Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 Regal Plastics has it and they'll cut it for you for a very reasonable price. I want to say they only carry it in 1/8" though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jurgy Posted March 23, 2011 Author Share Posted March 23, 2011 I checked the Home Depot down the street from my house and no luck there. I'll check with regal in the am. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 Regal has a great selection, more than just 1/8". They will cut it for you, however I believe they now have a $35. minimum purchase now. So if you need acrylic glue, etc., get it from there. I checked the Home Depot down the street from my house and no luck there. I'll check with regal in the am.

JasonJones Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 I have a few smaller pieces laying around, how big do you need? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jurgy Posted March 23, 2011 Author Share Posted March 23, 2011 I have a few smaller pieces laying around, how big do you need? I need it to be 40"x 22". This is to cover the back of the aquarium. I would rather one piece as it will look much cleaner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mooric Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 You could always just use a static cling blackout window film. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jurgy Posted March 23, 2011 Author Share Posted March 23, 2011 I need to do the plexi as the back of the tank looks pretty bad scratch wise and this will make it look much nicer. I just got off the phone with Regal and they said $26 for 1/8" and $36 for 1/4". I guess I don't need it to be really thick as it is just for design so I'll probably go with 1/8".

JasonJones Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 Yeah, don't pay for the extra thickness if you don't need it. My pieces are all in the 3x5" range so I certainly wouldnt be much help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
