ABS may absorb greater amounts of radiant energy than acrylic;
thus, surface temperatures may increase more rapidly. Care should
be taken to maintain the surface temperature at 325 325°F 360360°F to
avoid blistering, burning and color/gloss shift of the acrylic cap.

Technical Details & Test Data
- Finishing
Prime ABS Weather
X 200 can be joined using mechanical
methods such as bolts, screws or clamps, or chemical methods
such as cementing. When drilling co extruded sheet with an
acrylic modified drill bit, be sure to exit from the acrylic side
but when drilling with a standard bit, be sure to have the bit
exit from the substrate side. For accuracy and safety, Prime
ABS Weather X 200 should be clamped during drilling.
Packaging & Availability
- Colors, Textures and Capabilities:
Prime ABS Weather
X 200 can be color matched to meet your
specific requirements. The surface is typically high gloss but
textures such as calf grain, H/C, F/L H/C, Levant 1 and Seville
are available.
