Hi ya'll!
What in the world is the Ray Ban Daddy-O made of? I have an older one (beat to heck) that I am working on and want to make sure I don't mess it up.
I've had these break and fall apart on me before so I've avoided heating it and isopropyl.
Any other hints and tips?
Thanks OptiBoard!

Correct!
I called Lux yesterday and the poor gal tried really hard but only came up with 'plastic'. I'm supposed to get a call back from one of their experts but I'm not holding my breath.
I thought they were made out of grilamide? Not completely sure but remember hearing it. I know you have to watch chemical contact with the daddy o..
Most of the Ray Ban plastics are propionate. However I do believe golfnut is right, and the rubberized ones are nylon grilamid.

Unglazium.
LOL unglazium!
I heated that thing with a blowtorch and it wouldn't expand.
I think it's an alien compound...
It sounds like your all making up words =P
New material from Lux?
Turns out the 'rubber' texture is just a coating on the surface. My pt frame was melting/dissolving and after I cleaned it up a bit I discovered that the rubber had begun to liquefy into a goo...
Underneath does indeed look and feel like propionate or grilamid.
haha
