Book 1, Page 17, "Any character with Armorer Skill may Reinforce armor."
Book 1, Page 17, "Any character may improvise armor. A character with Armorer Skill who does not have the proper facilities will only be Improvising."
Book 2, Page 20, "This Skill allows the character with the proper tools to produce armor in the same way that a character with Leatherworking Skill produces garments."
Book 3, Page 56, "Kit 2 Can be used for plastics up to AV 9."

Making Plastic armor requires a Plastic Forming Kit of the correct weight (AV), Book 2, page 22, though lower AVs can be produced.
Generally speaking plastic forming can be done without electricity. The Forming Kit contains a mixture of chemicals that will form the plastic. GMs can modify this, but the book gives no guidance.

Plastic Synthesization makes the plastic (or it comes from a premade kit), Plastics Forming makes the armor with Armorer Plastic. It requires both skills to make armor, but only Plastics forming to make objects.
