Cleaning
Recommendations
Smooth and nonporous, acrylic is easy to clean with soap & water or
antibacterial sex toy cleaners.
The material is very strong and is nearly indestructible. However,
be careful putting it on abrasive surfaces as acrylic is easily scratched.
Recycling
Level
Acrylic plastic is not easily recycled. It is considered a group 7
plastic among recycled plastics and is not collected for recycling
in most communities. Large pieces can be reformed into other useful
objects if they have not suffered too much stress, crazing, or cracking,
but this accounts for only a very small portion of the acrylic plastic
waste. In a landfill, acrylic plastics, like many other plastics,
are not readily biodegradable. Some acrylic plastics are highly flammable
and must be protected from sources of combustion.
