Would acrylic make a good printing surface? (no replies)

This article on the wiki makes it seem like it does, under the ABS section. I'm not entirely sure what do get though - would it not melt at a certain temp? And would putting ABS juice on it cause it erode slightly? Or is this not the type of material that would dissolve?

I'm looking at acryllic mainly for cost reasons (much cheaper to buy something like this from a surplus store than to buy glass) and for aesthetic reasons (I don't like the look of a bright red heatbed with ugly cut glass on my all black printer, when something like a sheet of black acrylic would look way better.)
