Convenient, versatile, lightweight and allows flexibility of design, all characteristics of the modern day miracle we know as plastic. Plastic materials have worked their way into every aspect of our lives and will continue to do so even more into the future as chemists invent new applications. Although plastic has many advantages, the main set back of the material is its vulnerabilities when it comes to cleaning and maintaining. This is particularly relevant when it comes to clear plastics where fine surface scratching and dirt accumulation cause a breakdown in clarity.
