Edge Polishing Komacel (or like)

[JTBoh]

We had a customer spec that they need PVC for several 6' tall panels as part of a sign package - problem is, they also specced polished edges. Would be using 1/2" Komacel if we bid it to spec - does anyone know of a way to get smooth edges (like the factory edges on a 49" x 98" sheet") with komacel? Looks to me that all that is from the molding process though, so dunno if thats possible.


BTW, melting it with a torch, ala acrylic, dont work.

Have you used this technique before? Decent edges on it?

its no flame polish, but if you also give it a bit of a bullnose it will get fairly smooth
