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