This acrylic (XT) sheet is single-sided, gold in colour and has a beautiful mirror effect. With this material, you can easily create a unique mirror. Pay attention when processing it. Due to the (extruding) production method, tension has been placed on the sheet. This can cause it to crack, so treat the sheet with extreme care. Or take a look at our robust moulded acrylic sheets; the risk of these sheets cracking is minimal.
Acrylic sheet is slightly more sensitive to scratches than ordinary glass. That is why we advise you to treat it with an anti-static cleaner after installation. Is there a scratch? Then you can remove it easily by polishing the sheet. The sheet has a thickness tolerance of 10 percent; this means that the thickness of the plate can actually differ from the thickness stated on this page.
Drilling, hot bending, milling, engraving, glueing, polishing and sawing are possible. But be extremely careful as this is an extruded acrylic sheet. This means that this sheet is under tension and can crack during processing.
PLEASE NOTE: Ensure that the surface to which you attach the mirror is completely smooth and flat. If you don’t do this, the mirror can become deformed, which will create a distorting mirror effect. We recommend fixing the mirror with our special glue or spacers for the best result, but screwing or clamping in a frame is also possible. Remember that outdoors, the mirror may corrode if the edges are not properly sealed, so place it in a (wooden) frame or provide a shelter for it.
| Mounting method | Suitable? | Explanation |
|---|---|---|
| Mounting on a flat wall | + | Ensure the surface is smooth and flat. Unevenness may cause bumps. |
| Mounting with adhesive | + | Use the Mirrorfix mounting kit and distribute evenly. Avoid accumulation of adhesive. |
| Mounting with spacers | + | Use a spacer every 30 cm. Insufficient spacers may cause the mirror to bulge. |
| Fixed installation | + | Make holes for mounting points at least one millimeter larger around. This is recommended to prevent deformations in the mirror plexiglass. |
| Mounting on large surface (wall filling) | - | Acrylic mirror sheets are too flexible for large surfaces. There is a risk of a funhouse mirror effect. |
| Freestanding placement | - | Acrylic mirror sheets are highly flexible and will bend if not mounted. |
| Mounted in a humid environment | - | The mirror film may rust upon contact with moisture. Use a frame or cover in damp areas (bathroom/garden). |
