Asker: No właśnie, też tak myślałam, ale w dwóch miejscach wyraźnie napisano shiver, może to faktycznie literówka.

kawałki


Explanation:
wg starej poczciwej Leksykonii:
shivers=kawałki/okruchy

patrząc zaś na definicję Giant cell, to wyobrażam sobie, że akryl jest traktowany jako ciało obce i "pożerany" przez Giant cells, więc jestem za kawałki/drobiny.

Akrylu nie widzę tu jako okruchów ani odłamków. Jest to włókno sztuczne (są też farby akrylowe :)
