<br>
Acrylic I tend to associate with paint and plastics.<br>
<br>
<br>
From satellite imagery I simply used 'paved' where I can determine it <br>
is not a 'natural' surface.<br>
<br>
<br>
Only some ~600 uses of DecoTurf.<br>
<br>
Only some ~20 uses of Hardcourt.<br>
<br>
Surface is used some 31,000,000 times so the above 2 may not be rendered <br>
anyway being such a small proportion.. possibly lumped into 'paved' if <br>
anyone bothers.<br>
