With over 19 different colors available, multiple thicknesses and coatings, FABBACK acrylic mirror has the sheet you need for just about any project.
Acrylic Mirror Care Manual Handling: All FABBACK® acrylic mirror sheets are furnished with protective masking on the reflective side of the sheet. Do not slide mirror when transporting and always store acrylic mirror in a clean, dry location with masking left in place until the sheet is ready to use.

For harder to remove items use hexane or kerosene to remove. Avoid window cleaning sprays, kitchen scouring compounds or other chemicals to clean mirror sheets. POLISHING: Surface gloss can be maintained by occasionally using a soft cloth and good plastic cleaner or polish. Follow instructions on the container when polishing.
