Curtis,


Not to trouble you, but have you tested these acrylics to see how they hold up in the sun? I believe it wast last year or maybe the year before but there were a couple builders ( one was Mike Barlkey ) who did tests on some acryllics, and they turned black under extended sunlight (UV protection issue). If you do a search on this section with Acrylic in the search line you can find the results.
