1. What is a PS mirror, and how is it different from a glass mirror?
A PS mirror is made from Polystyrene, a type of durable and lightweight plastic. The key differences from a traditional glass mirror are:
Safety & Weight: It is shatter-resistant and significantly lighter than glass, making it safer and easier to install.
Material: The reflective surface is applied to plastic instead of glass, which is why it doesn't break into sharp pieces.
Application: While glass mirrors are often for decorative home use, our flat PS mirrors are designed for commercial, industrial, and DIY projects where safety and customization are priorities.
2. Can I cut the PS mirror to a custom size myself?
Yes, one of the major advantages of our PS mirrors is that they are easy to customize. You can cut them to your desired size and shape using common tools like a scoring knife, a fine-toothed saw (e.g., a jigsaw or table saw), or even heavy-duty scissors for thinner sheets. Always remember to measure carefully and wear appropriate safety gear when cutting.
3. Is the PS mirror suitable for outdoor use?
While our PS mirrors are durable for indoor use, we do not recommend them for prolonged or permanent outdoor exposure. Over time, direct sunlight (UV rays) and varying weather conditions can affect the plastic's clarity and the reflective backing. For outdoor applications, we suggest exploring our acrylic mirror options, which offer better weather resistance.
