Gold Mirror Acrylic Sheet

Gold mirror acrylic sheets can be used as alternatives to traditional glass mirror sheets for a myriad of applications. Similar to acrylics, gold acrylic mirrors can be easily cut, fabricated and formed. For buyers planning to use a laser cutter, it is best to reverse all artwork and cut the gold acrylic sheet with the backing side up (mirrored side down) for the best results. Acrylic gold mirror sheets are manufactured by applying a metal finish to one side of an acrylic sheet and then covered with a painted backing to protect the mirror surface. This mirror backing can be damaged by solvents and chemicals so it is best to test any products in small sections first. Acrylic mirrors offer a new and modern twist on a classic style and have so many creative uses in both professional and home decor spaces.

What are the key differences between acrylic and glass mirrors?

Standard acrylic mirrors, gold mirror sheets and rose gold acrylic sheets are all lightweight mirror alternatives. These mirrors are impact resistant and shatterproof, making them the ideal choice for use in areas where health and safety are of concern such as playrooms, gyms, schools and athletic studios. They are easy to clean and UV resistant, meaning they will not discolor. The material is easy to cut into various shapes without the worry of chipping or cracking. Acrylic sheets are a cost-effective way to manufacture acrylic mirrors in bulk. However, these mirrors are best used inside as high humidity and damp environments can damage and distort the mirrored backing. Glass mirrors on the other hand will not warp or become distorted. Thick-width mirrors are surprisingly strong, but they always come with the possibility of cracking or shattering. Glass is still the most popular mirror type on the market as it offers a perfect reflection.
