I've never used this stuff but if its designed for laser cutting then I would say yes, but if it is aluminum then no it won't cut it

You'll need a shear to cut aluminum. If cutting shapes, you'll need more than a shear ;)

We use a shear to cut the LaserBlak aluminum, I make the outline 1/16th larger the actual size and engrave the rectangle when I engraved the text, and then I cut it with a shears. I doubt I would even be able to use the laser to cut the material.
