Thats the right kind, a triple chip melamine blade or such.

I bought a brand new 10" x 80 tooth freud blade specific for plastics/acrylic a couple weeks ago. http://www.freudtools.com/p-41-plexi...csbr-nbsp.aspx

I've only cut a couple pieces, but man oh man it makes freaking smooth edges! I also bought a 1/2" triple fluted flush trim router bit, and it cuts acrylic nice and smooth too! very very pleased with freud tools, they are worth the money if you're going to do alot.
