90% trivex! I thought I was hard core with my 50-55%!
Coatings are EX3 and Recharge, which is why I'm curious-- EX3 is supposed to have glass-level scratch resistance. The scratches tend to be small and superficial-- not many long, large scratches, but tiny pittings.

ETA: Running a report, looks like I overestimated slightly. Trivex is about 75%. Still a nice number. Poly's number two at 20%, CR-39 and Hi-Index tie for third.
