I want to what I should use and how I should go about cutting it to make the perfect cutouts for my Aquaclear filters. I don't want to just go at it and mess the whole thing up.

I used serrated kitchen shears, just outlined the slot where the filter would go and marked it with a fine sharpie. Cut along the lines and trimmed off any bits and pieces that were in the way if it didn't fit

I used a short hacksaw blade in a plastic handle, got it at local home improvement store.
