Question:

What is the plastic sheeting that is used in shed windows?

those plastic sheets that can be usd in picture frames, on the shed or in the house, I have seen them in BQ, what shall i type when searching for the plastic sheet on 'OKorder', I have typed plastic sheets but no luck, can you help me on this one.

Answer:

Plexiglass is an old brand name that has become a generic name, kind of like Xerox was a photocopy for a long time. I think Lexan is the brand you find in the stores most often these days.
If they are the ones I think they are polycarbonate but they are usually in the building section out the back
For a rigid sheet they're typically polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) or the trade name Lexan. PMMA is cheaper than polycarbonate.
Another name of Polycarbonate Lexan Sheet is plastics which are used in various purposes. Normally it is used for security purposes. It is made in different colors and thicknesses. So it may used in shed windows.
If you look under Green Houses....you will find many different sizes thickness........
