Re: Stus-List Halifax acrylic suppliers - was Re: Windows Pt 2.

[Dr. Mark Bodnar via CnC-List]

  
  


Just bought a 4x8 sheet of dark grey 3/8" cast acrylic (2074)
  from Piedmont Plastics (should arrive in 2 weeks).
And yes, my CS 30 appears to have grey rather than bronze
  windows.  My forward hatch was replaced by the PO - definitely a
  dark grey tint.  

I'll be replacing the 4 side windows using the VHB tape method -
  hopefully with enough left over to replace the "glass" from the 2
  older hatches.

Remember to use cast acrylic, not extruded.

 I'm waiting on them to get back to me with a price for a 4x8' sheet of
 9mm acrylic  - or even if they have any cut off etc -- but they didn't seem
 like they had any in stock and were unsure about pricing or availability.

 I got the 3M VHB tape last summer and plan on replacing the replacement
 this spring.

I used clear on my side port-lights, and like it. I don't think I would
like dark grey anyway.

I used 9mm (3/8") #126 bronze for my side windows.  I'm happy with the
color.

Bronze is what was used originally on the C, both for the fixed windows and

Thanks for all the feedback on acrylic.

Talked to both Piedmont Plastics and Polymershapes today. Currently 
Polymershapes does not have grey/smoked in 3/8" - only in bronze.


Piedmont has a light grey available in 3/8" (need to ship in from 
Montreal) but they don't have the darker grey currently in stock in Canada.


I've got to go take a look at a sample - but googling images for "grey 
acrylic 2064" (light) vs "grey acrylic 2074" (dark) -- I'd think my side 
windows are dark and my opening hatches are the lighter grey.  I may be 
forced to go with light grey for both.
