unwritten law Superstar Fish Sep 7, 2009 #6 Sep 2, 2008 1,471 0 0 36 DC Sep 7, 2009 #6 unwritten law Sep 7, 2009 yeah acrylic scratches a lot easier than glass, especially if you have a mag float with any debris (like sand) caught on the underside of it. Although acrylic doesn't crack or break like glass can and is a lot lighter. But glass is just easier.
