You have been given good advice on cutting plexi. Score and snap is
the way to go. a freind has a shop where he fabricates plexi. there
is a special blade designed for the purpose but it isn't common. YOu
have to go to a plexi supplier to find it. It has a hook on the end
so that the cutting edge faces toward you and he always scores by
draggin the blade toward himself. then he snaps it over the edge of
the table. He makes one heavy score and then snaps. he then uses a
buffing wheel to smooth the edge.


The scouring tool you described can be found in the HD ceramic tile
section. It has a carbide tip. Another improvisation is to use the
carbide edge tip of a router bit to scour the plexiglas line.
