Get this... Speedy in Scarborough ON (got transferred there by mistake the first time), $110 for a 4x8 sheet. Speedy in Winnipeg MB, $391.44!!! Yikes!
Then I went hunting in the Yellow pages, found a couple local plastics manufacturers... I can get Lexan with a 5yr non-yellow wty for $83.00 or Acrylic with a 10yr wty for $110. No brainer!
I'm thinking 1/8" thick will be sufficient, what are you using and did you need to put in a support brace to keep the panel from buckling in the wind?
