XLNT TECH Engraving Double Color Sheet (7 x 11“ x .040”, 12 Pieces & 12 Colors) for Interior Signs, Badges.

We used this product w/ a 45w co2 laser to create signs for our facility. Works great!

When laser engraved the core which is grey, goes browner, as if burnt. Cheap enough to buy but not really good enough for sign making, which is intended use.

I was disappointed when I got my order. The description implies that thtere are 12 colors/12 pieces, so I was expecting one piece of each color. I didnt even have a choice of color (hence the reason I thought I was getting all colors). I got all red panels, 12 of them. Doesnt work well with laser engraver.

We used our 50W laser engraver at the lowest setting, and the results were terrible. The colored film bubbled at the edges and flaked off, and the melt patterns of the ABS are also bad. There are no guidelines as to what power settings should be used, so maybe a 50W is just too much. Im requesting a refund, and I do not recommend these for laser-engraving.

This engraving plastic works as well in my laser as any other I have tried. It comes with a plastic protective film on top. You want to leave that film on when you cut and then carefully remove it afterwards as it will keep your material from getting all sooted up. Raster engraving will not leave a smooth surface. Ive tried the stuff from Trotec laser and I didnt get a smooth raster finish with that either. What does work is cutting, and its cousin - vector engraving (which is just cutting, but with less power and faster so it doesnt go through). The top coat on engraving plastic is REAL thin, so youll likely find that the fastest movement and the lowest power your laser will do will be enough to leave marks. THE MOST IMPORT THING IS SAFETY!! I run a Middle School makerspace. The most important part of onboard training (Which i do for each and every tool in the space, for each and every student that comes in) is how to work with a tool safely. Lasers work by cutting things with heat, so a risk with laser cutting is always FIRE. Ive had fires start when cutting cardboard, paper, foamcore, and rubber. You should ALWAYS have a fire extinguisher next to your laser cutter. You should always check before you start cutting that you know where said extinguisher is. You should NEVER leave the laser while its running. Watch it work! Also, you might keep a spray bottle full of water near the laser. Most laser fires can be extinguished with a few swirts of water and thats a lot easier to clean up than a fire extinguisher. You will need the following upgrades on your laser to use this material: 1) FUME EXHAUST: Folks, having an exhaust to take your fumes outside is super important no matter what you are cutting in the laser. Cutting WOOD in the laser results in ultrafine (<2.5pm) particles that are hazardous to your health. This stuff is ABS plastic, read up on burning ABS - it will release formaldehyde which is REAALLY bad for you! Dont skimp out, get a fume exhaust system in place. 2) Air assist: ABS is known to be a fire-prone material when laser cutting. Having an air assist is really important for blowing out most fires that will start when cutting this material. Again, dont cheap out, an air assist costs less than a new laser cutter or house.

Top layer of color is applied unequally, resulting in an uneven color and appearance. Engraved well. Be sure to remove adhesive protective film.

This is supposed to be white? The bottom is a blank sheet of WHITE printer paper. If you want to waste your money on CHEAP CHINESE crap, go for it.

The top layer is very thin and scratches easily. Handle with care. I have started spraying finished projects with clear coat to protect the appearance but that affects the finished look.

Using for laser etching, works great

Les mesures sur le descriptif ne sont pas bonnes. Cest plutôt 190x290x1.25 mm (7.5x11.44x.05). La pélicule de couleur est environ 0.1mm.
