I want to do some lithos, but am not familiar with lexan..
I know lowes carries some that is about 1/8 inch thick. Is this the stuff I want to use? What other types of stores should I look for it at? I know there are a few people who sell it online, but would like to go pick some up today and give it a try. Thanks.

There's a Laird Plastics in Vegas. I go to one here, near Detroit to get my litho material.

I only use cast acrylic. I got some free samples for my business. I asked for cast acrylic, and they gave me one extruded acrylic piece. It melted and gummed up immediately. If you get anything with "Plexiglas" printed on it, make sure it's "Plexiglas G." "G" is their naming convention for their cast acrylic.

... at least call and ask if they have what you want. I'm sure they'll have what you're looking for.
