Did you find you had to slow down the router to keep the plastic from

====================

The plastic melts when the cutting bit gets too hot. Slowing down too
much can actually make the problem worse. Nice sharp carbide bits are
the best defense, using nice beefy bits with a 1/2 inch shank helps
also.
