any good plastic replacements in the bay area, CA?

Sep 03, 2004 0 Replies

after reading all the different ways folks have changed their back plastic, I think I'm leaning towards cutting out the plastic, and glueing a new one on. My question is what type of plastic is best to use that you can get from hardware stores.



I'm in the san jose, california area - is there anything I should look for from the local hardware stores? are there any plastics that resist yellowing better than others? how about tinting the new plastic - is that possible/helpful???



also, has anyone been able to take out the palstic border that is glued to the top? I was planning to just hot-gluegun the new plastic ontop of the original border once the inside was cut out but I'd rather not have the old yellowed border under the new plastic, and I think the new plastic would adhere better tot he top directly then to the old plastic leftovers...



thanks, thomas
