"Plastics" is a pretty broad field. I sold industrial plastics
until 4 weeks ago, and IIRC we had 810 categories.
Anything clear (acrylic, polycarbonate) is quite sensitive.
Styrene is fairly sensitive. Polyethylene is pretty much
resistant to anything (and doesn't take paint well to begin
with). "Resin" is probably polyester or polyether urethane,
possibly with fiberglass filler to stiffen it a
bit--unfortunately urethane applications usually didn't involve
aggressive chemicals so I don't remember exactly what they could
stand. Also, "resin" could be anything--if it's plastic, it's
made from resin.
