Warren Posted January 19, 2017 Report Share Posted January 19, 2017 If its cast acrylic and you're using a c02 laser you should get a frosted finish. What is the power of your laser? Has the focus point been correctly set? What settings are you using? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure I have given advice via official channels already. However, Warren is probably right. Check your focal alignment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
