Lexan would work, but it sure is pricey. Several years ago it was
over $180 a sheet. It is virtually indestructible by hammer or
any other physical blow, but scratches super easy.

I think you will come out better and be well pleased with
laminated safety glass from your local glass shop. Tempered glass
will not work for your needs.

I've built a faux-window for a client; basically a 9-light storm
window
that will cover an electrical panel. She wants to backlight it
(or
something along those lines), but she's concerned one of her
kids will
smash a pane. Any recommendations about what to use that will
look
"good"? I'm thinking tempered glass, but what about acrylic?
It's
going to be frosted, but I don't want it to look plasticy.
Thanks.
