FAQs

Do I need to remove the film before cutting?

Yes, it is essential to peel off the protective film from both sides of the sheet before laser processing to ensure a clean finish and safe operation.

Is this acrylic suitable for outdoor use?

While casted acrylic is durable, prolonged exposure to extreme UV rays may eventually affect the clarity of the material over several years.

Can I use this with a diode laser?

Yes, but ensure your diode laser has sufficient power for 3mm material and perform a test cut to determine optimal passes and speed.

How should I clean the finished project?

Use a microfiber cloth dampened with water and a tiny amount of mild dish soap to wipe away dust and fingerprints.

Are the dimensions always exact?

Due to the manufacturing process, you should expect a tolerance of up to 1/2 inch in length/width and 1/12 inch in thickness.

Troubleshooting

Laser failing to cut through the material

Check that the focal length is set correctly for 3mm thickness and verify that the laser power settings match the provided QR code parameters.

Edges look charred or melted

Ensure that your air assist is running at the correct pressure and try increasing the cutting speed while slightly adjusting the power percentage.

Material is warping or bowing

Ensure the sheet is held flat against the laser bed using magnets or pins, and store remaining sheets horizontally in a climate-controlled environment.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior edge quality after laser cutting
  • High-end aesthetic with integrated glitter and gloss
  • Includes helpful QR code for laser setting optimization
  • Versatile material for diverse creative applications

Cons

  • Protective film must be removed before processing
  • Potential for minor dimensional variances (+/- 1/2 inch in width/length)
  • Thickness may vary slightly (+/- 1/12 inch)

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before initiating any cut or engraving, ensure that the protective masking film on both sides of the sheet is completely removed to prevent fire hazards or melting of the plastic onto the laser bed. Because this is casted acrylic, it is highly compatible with most standard CO2 laser cutters. Store sheets flat in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent warping. When cleaning your finished products, use a soft, lint-free cloth and mild soapy water; avoid harsh chemical cleaners like acetone or alcohol, as these can cause the acrylic to crack or lose its gloss finish.
