Anyone know the type of plastic which is vaccum foldable, and is shiny such as that of bens PS3 laptop, or a PSP or PS3

That looks like a layer of clear acrylic to me.

Even around the curves?

Just curious is the thinnest thickness of acrlyic vacumfoldable?

That looks metallic to me, however... For the shiny look, ABS plastic is the way to go.

just put some glossy clear coat on it if you dont think it is shiny enough
