Acrylic Sheet (Glitter) 3mm x 98mm x 98mm, sample
Try a sample of our 3mm cast glitter acrylic sheets, measuring 98mm x 98mm. This offers a perfect way of checking the suitability of a material without having to buy a complete sheet first. Check the finish of the material and get the perfect settings for your laser without having to practice on a full-sized/priced sheet.
These acrylic sheets contain evenly distributed glitter particles. Perfect for exploring new visual effects that are guaranteed to catch the eye. Just like our regular acrylics, this glitter-infused acrylic is suitable for laser cutting and laser engraving.
Our extensive range of acrylic has just been expanded to include a whole array of cast acrylic sheets that contain evenly distributed glitter particles.
When processing with a laser try your usual speed and power settings as a test cut. You may determine that slightly higher power or slightly slower cutting speeds are required. Also, the better the smoke extraction the better quality of finish will be achieved which, in turn, will lead to less cleaning and finishing of the end result.
When engraving, to achieve a better contrast between engraved and engraved surfaces, use are air assisted cutting if your laser has it fitted. Rapid cooling of the engraved areas will lead to a more pronounced matt finish.
Note:
Please be aware that due to the manufacturing process this sheet can come with air bubbles in it. These will not affect the sheets cut in any way. The number of air bubbles can vary from batch to batch and the colour of the sheet can affect how visible these bubbles are.
