Working with styrene!

Postby Kryptokron » Tue Aug 25, 2009 10:29 am

Hi guys! So my queries are for anyone who has done alot of customizing with styrene/plastiboard. I have never worked with it before, and I am wondering if this stuff can be heated up and made to mold to a certain shape. And if it can be heated up, what is the best method for doing so?

For small jobs, a hair drier works best. You can also use a hobby heat gun I wouldn't use a paint stripper though, way too hot.

For full sheets, like for vacuforming, use your oven, set to 400 degrees F.
