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

I recently got a laser engraver and was acquiring some different blanks to use with it. I thought these would be good for making into smaller signs or even cutting into smaller shapes for things like badges or something. However, these do state Perfect For Rotary Engraving, but not 100% for laser. Unfortunately, that information seems to be buried in the listing, and I didnt pay attention to it. I was able to use it with my laser... sort of, but not well. I never got good results and if a black soot layer forms on it, its very difficult to get that off making the entire surface look dirty. More soot also seems to form on these than the ones meant for use with laser engraving. It also doesnt get as clean an edge on the designs you make in it. I still gave this 4 stars because its unfair to take them away when Im using it in a way they dont recommend. Despite the issues I had and the many hours playing around with settings to try and get it to work well, I was able to get a few decent signs out of these. The material is sturdy but not too heavy so it does work well for small signs and if you can get it cut nicely using a rotary engraver or somehow manage nice results with a laser then it makes nice signs and the contrast of white and blue looks good. If you have a rotary engraver these are probably great but if you have a laser engraver expect more disappointing results. They do sell blanks intended for use with laser engravers so Id recommend just finding the size/color in the blanks they do recommend for laser use.

I generally get good results with my Epilog laser engraver but this just didnt come out well. Highly sensitive to focus, but even then I had dark gray shadow lines. My signs didnt come out well and I do wish Id looked elsewhere

This company if very deceiving. Why would you label something laser EVERYWHERE and advertise as laser material knowing it will not work in a laser machine. Melted and melted into my $6,000 machine. Way to go! Will never buy from this company again.

The substrate is supposed to be white but it is more of a dirty white/grey color so the engraving looks dirty. Not recommended if you are looking for a true white substrate.

Engraved cleanly. I am a satisfied customer and will order again.

Works well with my 7w diode laser at 15% power. Easy to cut with a utility knife and a straight edge.

Big mistake Item said bright white and we got red / grey. Our staff printed it. Inspector failed us immediately and went no further. We will reprint all the signs again with other material and call then inspector again and have all parties standing by, again. Expensive! Thanks for the bad description or wrong product sent; do not purchase.

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.

I got this thinking I could cnc it with my laser. turns out its actually white acrylic with a thin layer of black. so only the thin black layer got cut, and the laser did not go all the way through. useless

CO2 works best for cutting, diode works best for engraving, FYSA.
