PlexiGlas is the name of a brand, not a product. PlexiGlas consists of many, many different products, many different colors.

Junior,
You may be confusing transparent with translucent.
Transparent is clear acrylic. Translucent comes in various colors.

Opaque cannot be seen through at all (with or without color)
Transparent can be seen through without any "cloudiness" as in a car window (with or without color)
Translucent is semi-transparent and may be said to be "cloudy" as in a plastic cup (with or without color)

You mention color. HD carries only clear. If you want translucent you will have to go to one of the plastics suppliers like Johnson Plastics. Transparent and translucent come in various colors.
Doug shows you a good example.

I'll have to check that a little closer. I just bought some clear extruded a few days ago and they had only clear in that section.
Bert, in case you didn't know, HD gives a 10% vet's discount on everything not on sale. (a couple of years back that saved me about $300 on deck materials)
