In order to have a perfect crystal look on acrylic piece, POLISHING is a MUST process. Acrylic is a non-scratch proof plastic sheet.  In order to make the perfect look after scratches, generally, the surface can be touched up and polished to recover it's original look.

The recommended way to clean scratches from acrylic plastic is to buff out the scratches with fine-grit sandpaper or a buffing machine and buffing polish. However, there are more then 1 process that can make the acrylic back to it's original look. Flame polishing is the technique of using a heat source, generally an open flame, to melt and thereby polish the edge of a piece of plastic. For reefing, this is usually most applicable to sumps. If done correctly the finished result resembles an edge that is as clear as the original acrylic.

For polishing edge, commonly will have the same process as traditional way, such as sandpaper polishing or flame polishing. With the latest technology, ASM is providing a more effective and efficient service for polishing edge by introducing Diamond Polishing service into our rack of service.

A diamond edge polisher uses sharp diamonds, rotating very quickly, to polish the edges of the acrylic material. This can result in unbeatable smoothness on your surface. However, it’s important to keep in mind that an acrylic diamond polishing machine will only work on straight or sloping sides. So a diamond polish treatment cannot be used to produce rounded corners.
