You are asking the wrong question here- cast acrylic is optically better, neither plastic is particularly healthy for the print and should always be separated from the print surface by a widow mat, or fillet(spacer) or both - also - both plastics generate static electricity when cleaned/dusted which can if discharged damage the surface of a print - when possible/practical use glass - when plastic must be used be sure to separate it from the print Berel Lutsky Associate Professor of Art UW Manitowoc 920-683-4735
