Care information
Care information
Lucite’s list of pros is considerable. It is scratch-, break-, and crack-resistant.
But there are things to keep in mind. Though it looks like glass, Lucite is a petroleum-based product, so petroleum solvents and chemicals permanently mark the surface. Direct sunlight will not soften acrylics but Lucite is still a type of plastic, you should do your best to avoid positioning any pieces right in front of a furnace, heater, or fireplace. Keep any Lucite away from an open flame or stove.
Like all acrylics, Lucite is safe to use in the home and does not pose any hazardous or toxic threat.
