I bought a couple of lampshades about 4 months ago for our living room ceiling, they were not cheap and I really liked them.

They are off white/neutral sort of colour plastic in silver frame. But are looking very brown. I took out the plastic stuff to give them a good scrub and they are scorched. Obviously I cant remove the scorch marks, so I am hoping I can buy a sheet of the plastic stuff to replace it.

The only problem is I dont know what its called.

Has to be heat resistant, same sort of colour and quite firm as it would have to sit behind a couple of little clips.

I was just wondering if any of you arty people would have any idea what it might be called, and where I could get some.

I have tried in DIY shops, with no luck

Know the kind of stuff you mean, but no idea what it is called. Sorry.

Can you take them back to the shop where you bought them? If they have scorched, it doesn't seem like they are 'fit for the purpose' of lamp shades.
