Which is better: opaque versus transparent materials for DIY projects? or Opaque versus transparent –

Opaque versus transparent comes down to function vs. form.

Need durability? Opaque.

Want style? Transparent (but baby it).

For outdoor projects, I’d say opaque unless you’re okay with eventual yellowing.

Thanks y’all! Super helpful.

Gonna test a small acrylic panel outdoors first—found a cheap scrap to experiment with.

Anyone tried sealing transparent stuff to prevent scratches? Heard car wax works, but idk.
