Perspex frames, by nickc on Jan 18, 2008 18:21:15 GMT 1, I'm glad someone asked this. I need to get my K-Guy Prostitutes and Junkies done soon and I figure that will have to be a perspex affair because of the size of it.

Some is, some isn't. Depends on the perspex. A good framer will use the stuff that is.

Perspex frames, by Harveyn on Jan 19, 2008 20:37:31 GMT 1, I have all my art framed with UVP acrylic (ultra violet protective). It can offer up to 95% UV protection between 300 nm and 400 nm. Its cheap and lighter than museum glass. You have to buy special anti-static cleaner as it scratches easily but you can also buy scratch remover (both these products are cheap). The other big advantage is if it breaks it is less likely to damage your art.

How much does it cost compared with museum glass?
