Anyone have suggestions where to buy this from. I was going to purchase just a sheet and install and called a local glass company. They quoted me $525.00 for a 4x8 sheet. Were they looking at a different product or is that what it is going for these day?
I talked to the rep for a big plastic company and he said I was wasting my money on any of the anti scratch products.. I had it on the first windshield but dont now... I just buy a regular sheet of Lexan or the same company brand stuff... I paid $220 or so for a sheet for a sheet of smoked color.... call around to all of your local or semi local companies... there is a big price difference.... when I talked to that rep that was back when I was working and I use to buy about 100-200 sheets a year

Look up cadillac plastic or glass. Got mine from them years ago, good price. They are near chicago, maybe they can tell you who to call by you? Or call Pro Glass for pre formed windows, or full sheets. Don
Pretty sure Cadilac plastic sold out or went under.. that was who the rep I talked to worked.... try calling them... that was where I bought my first sheet

"and he said I was wasting my money on any of the anti scratch products." Anybody agree?
Reality check, that half the population is smarter then 50% of the people and it's a constantly contested fact.

I used standard polycarbonate on my car, been there close to 20 years now and has been thru he.. and back, going to replace it when I refinish the paint and will use the std. stuff again, as stated before, if you wash the grit and dirt off first and use a soft cloth when you clean it, then it will last longer,,I also use lemon pledge which helps hide small scratches.
Light travels faster than the speed of sound,,,this is why some people seem bright untill you hear them speak.

was told the same thing here, it's just a coating that does very little at double the cost
