Clear 3/16" polycarbonate various sheet sizes

A while back we had to do part of a bank debranding and had to order white polycarbonate panels for blank faces.   Well, I ordered them all from my plastic suppliers website.   When the door on the delivery truck opened up I nearly fainted.   I had ordered clear from thier website by mistake!   Argggggg!   To err is human, but to really screw up requires a computer - or an idiot using a computer!   ?  

 

Anyway, I have brand new, clear polycarbonate pieces cut from roll stock (Tuffak SL brand).  All are, of course, cut to particular sizes to fit that job.   They range from 72 3/4" x 96 1/4" down to 35 3/4" x 59 3/4".  There are 15 pieces in all, mainly 6x8 (nominal) sheets.    I can provide the full list on request.   No shipping of them.  $4/SF at whatever the nominal size is, picked up from my shop in 08109 (Pennsauken NJ).   I.E. that smaller size mentioned above will be called a 3' x 5' sheet.  Cash preferred, but will take a company check.  They have been stored inside the shop since brought and are either in my material rack or flat up against a wall.   In other words the sheets are in really good condition with no warps, etc.   I will consider a reasonable offer for the whote lot (total cost new was $2500+ also I did use one of the 4' sheets), but lowballers will be fed to my daughters viscous attack bunny!   ? 

 

I hope someone can use some of these.   I need the space in my material racks for a big shipment of aluminum.

I have a local spray sub (we haven't sprayed in-house in more than 30 years) but he's never sprayed translucent paint on plastic.   Plus I'd need to bring it back/forth, not damage it, etc.  Yes, I could apply tranlucent white vinyl to the back but with the better translucnt white vinyl at close to $2/sf and adding in the labor to apply it, i might as wall just buy white plastic.   A buddy was going to buy some of the 6x8 sheets but said the same thing about the vinyl cost, time involved, etc.  I was hoping someone needs clear backs for channel letters, vandal covers, etc.   

 

One of the guys had suggested rolling the sheets with white paint for that bank de-branding but it just seemed too "ghetto" to me.

    • It would be the cable appropriate to fit in the sheave size, measure what is on there currently. And 2.25 - 2.5 times longer than the fully extended boom length. You can probably find the least required number of wraps on the winch drum.
    • Done a few, do you have questions?

    • Hey everyone, I wanted to share some insights I recently explored about how digital signage is transforming communication within hospitals and healthcare environments. Whether it's patient experience, internal messaging, or emergency alerts — digital displays are making a huge impact. Here are 6 key benefits I discovered: ✅ 1. Reduced Perceived Wait Times Waiting in hospitals can be stressful. Digital signage helps by displaying health tips, entertainment, or wait time updates to ease patient anxiety and improve their experience. ✅ 2. Real-Time Emergency Alerts In urgent situations, hospitals can use digital screens to instantly broadcast important alerts or emergency codes across departments — faster and more effectively than overhead systems. ✅ 3. Improved Staff Communication From shift updates to meeting reminders, internal digital boards streamline communication and reduce confusion among staff, especially in larger facilities. ✅ 4. Wayfinding Made Easy Navigating hospitals can be confusing. Interactive digital maps and directional signs help visitors and patients get to their destination without constantly asking for help. ✅ 5. Promoting Health Campaigns Hospitals can use signage to promote wellness programs, flu shot campaigns, or COVID updates — all in a visually engaging way that captures attention. ✅ 6. Better Patient Engagement Screens in waiting areas or patient rooms can be used for educational videos, treatment FAQs, or even personalized messages — creating a more informed and connected patient experience. I wrote a full article diving deeper into each of these, if anyone wants to read more: https://www.wipath.com/top-6-advantages-of-using-digital-signs-in-hospitals/ Would love to hear your thoughts — are you seeing digital signage being used effectively in your hospitals or clinics? Cheers!
