If you treat a plexi tank with blue or anything with dyes wil lit stain the tank permanantly? Just a question to a newby plexi owner :confused:

I don't notice any discoloration. But, be careful with plecos in plexi tank. My bristlenose and rubbermouth plecos scratched my Truvu 100 gallon plexiglass tank pretty bad, it is all foggy looking. Can't even take a decent picture anymore.

a buddy of mine was a professor at ubc in a department where they did tests in plexi tanks with crazy chemicals. He showed me a product that will take a deep grove (scratchs) out of a plexi tank and make it brand new looking again.. Just means i would have to drain the tank and do it up!!!

Its only available in large large quantities and im gonna bottle and sell this stuff!

So my website should be up within the next month selling the bottles..


I know how well it works due to my suzuki gsxr windscreen which was a plexi plastic resin was scratched all to hell and i rubbed on and off and it looked like new. He showed me a demo on a plexi tank with large scratchs and grooves and i was sold after the rub on and rub off..

Now a name

Bill & Jimmyhats miracle Drug for plexiglass.

Bill corrupted me on discus so he has to have a name on the product!

the flashy slogan:
Your tank will look so good you will kick your discus out and just view the tank alone!

Jimmy,

Know if you sell the stuff you will have to tell on the label and on a MSDS what is in it!
