ABS Plastic Sheet / BLACK-** READ DETAILS BELOW**

great product, quality material

My order included this black ABS textured sheet, 1/2" T&G, medium latches, medium handle. All were expertly packaged to protect against damage/scrapes/shifting. The laminate was rolled up smooth side to the inside. Perfect! It cut okay with a sturdy box cutter, though I ended up using an old pair of EMT shears that worked just as well. The case I built for my 16-channel Peavey mixer with these materials looks as good as if not better than the Anvil cases for my other P.A. and drum equipment. I'll be back!!!

I was originally hesitant to get the laminate, but I am really glad that I did. Easy to work with. Looks great.

Love the ABS plastic laminate - works great, looks great, somewhat simple to cut with the right knife.

Product shipped same day that I ordered. Product arrived very well packaged and better quality than I expected. I will order again.

This is what I was going for. The look the feel I look like a pro Thank you.

I purchased 3 sheets of this black ABS. It came rolled up in a sturdy box. No shipping damage to mine, but I know this varies widely depending on what kind of mood the UPS Man is in the day your box gets delivered. This ABS cuts easily with a SHARP, NEW utility knife blade. Put a new blade in your knife and you'll have no problems. Do yourself a favor and use the recommended 3M 90 Spray Adhesive. Yes; it's expensive. But you get what you pay for.

The product itself is great!! However, when I removed itfrom the box, there was some small chips out of the side of two of the sheets. This is no doubt shipping damage but I would suggest that the ends of the roll be padded better. It didn't affect my project but it could have if the chip were any deeper. Also, I had to remove about a foot long patch of the gummy residue left from clear tape. It took several tries with different solvents to get it off. I'm in the final construction phase so I'll send photos when complete.

On the DIY Roadcases store, it doesn't mention that one side of this sheet is textured. The surface is very much like my new JBL speaker cabinets on one side and shiny smooth on the other. This rough surface minimizes the appearance of light surface scratches that happen while moving (It will also make quick work of taking the skin off of a stray knuckle). Also, I ordered two plastic sheets which were neatly rolled up and placed in a box that was about 12 inches square and 48 inches long, saving tons on shipping, but that's not all! When this stuff rolled out, it didn't have the ends trying to curl up. It laid flat out! This made me happy because I didn't have to wait for a warm spell to flatten it out. A little advice that I couldn't find on site...get yourself a straight edge and use a utility knife with a new blade to make your cuts. Cut on the textured side. You don't have to cut all the way through, but MOST of the way through, then you can snap it just like drywall. If you cut the smooth side, the blade leaves a ridge on the side that you need to glue down (If you've never cut drywall before, a youtube video on cutting drywall will give you a visual idea of what I'm saying). You don't want that ridge on the smooth side but it won't harm anything on the textured side. A saw blade will also cut the ABS sheet but it is VERY hard to handle the sheet on a table saw, even for two people, and it makes a rough cut. Last thing, the sheet is not quite 96X48 It was 47-7/16 wide, I imagine the length is also 9/16 short, but I wasn't cutting that direction, so I didn't get an exact measurement. I just noticed it was shorter than 96 inches. Enjoy your project! DIY ROAD CASES® RESPONSE :::::::::::::::::::::::::::: Hi John, Thanks very much for your feedback and recommendations. Just FYI regarding the size of the ABS sheet . . . it is made just a bit smaller than 4 x 8, because during sheet-to-sheet laminating in the factory you need a little space between the edges of the wood and the ABS to allow for proper purging of air between the sheets when they pass through the press roller. I guess we never addressed that because we have never had anyone whose case dimensions were such that they needed every bit of the ABS sheet or plywood, but I guess there may always a first time! I have also made changes to the description details for the ABS based on your feedback. Thanks again! Jonathan Beacon Director of Sales & Merchandising DIY Road Cases® 213-341-0026 Ext.707
