Danny’s tips for others
"At Plasticsheetsshop, you have the option to order a few samples in different colours and/or materials. This is useful to see if it’s what you’re after, then when you place the final order, the sample costs are refunded. Take your time to measure and saw. Tape over the holes you need to saw with good painter's tape; this prevents damage. Stick the panels to the wall with the protective film facing out. This avoids damage during installation."
