Smoked Perspex

[DanP]

Does anyone know of a good source for smoked perspex as used in Atari classic era games (quite dark)?

What size do you need? I got a new sheet for a Cabaret Missile command but it was too dark

I'll measure up tonight but it's much bigger than a cabaret cab size.

They can supply any tint or type of plastic and can even form moulds etc

They can coat with a product called Optiguard. This is a very fine invisible film applies to the plastic that will minimise scratching. They say its almost as good as glass?

Always good to have a scratch free screen.

I've used Trent plastics in the past. Very good! I think I went for a dark grey for my Asteroids and it looks ok
