Just wanted to say thanks for all the suggestions and info! I haven't yet had a need to fire my laser back up and do some Cermark work but when I do I'll be sure to let all know what the problem was...

Wow, that's nuts! I cracked up at the blurry photo on the shaker :)

When you say you mix it to 2 parts DNA to 1 part Cermark do you take some Cermark out of the original container and mix it or...

Awesome! Thanks for all the info. I'll give up on the spray can and open it up and use the foam brush to use up the rest of it.

Thanks much again and have a great day! :)

This will probably be the last spray one I buy. I'll try what you are saying.

I bought some stuff on eBay years ago for under $10 and it was FANTASTIC. It left a super black mark and years and...

Wow. Ok, if the Cermark gets THAT HARD in the bottom then that could definitely be my problem because I only shook it for a minute or two like you would a can of spray paint. It took a bit to get...

Thanks! I'll definitely keep that in mind about the adhesive containing PVC. Where I'm looking to use this is actually flat so should work ok. Thanks!

Mine is in a spray can but did have some issues with the nozzle clogging. I shook it good but maybe I didn't shake it good enough. I'll have to build something too to shake my cans up better than I...

Thanks! That gives me something to start with so thanks very much!

I ended up engraving on some powder coated Koozies I had and they came out very good with crisp lines and details was good.

I...

Hmmm... gotcha. Just weird. Not sure what happened then. I tried to make 2 of them and they both came out pretty darn bad!

Sorry about that. For some reason I must have got this site confused with a different one and thought I wasn't allowed to post actual pics anymore. Sorry again! Here is the linked picture...

Hello!

I don't use my laser all that often but wanted to make some stainless koozies the other day. They came out like garbage when I've had really good luck with this product in the past on...

Awesome! Thank you! I'm looking for glossy, probably several colors because I can offer this to others too, prefer solid appears where light doesn't pass through.

I will check them out. Thank...

I will check out McMaster-Carr and be aware of the fumes! :) Thank you!

Hello!

I do mostly vinyl work for cars and just use my laser mostly for gifts for friends but have had a request from a customer to see if I can make him an emblem out of laser cut acrylic. I...

That looks like a lot of work. Is there a reason you don't just take the black and white images and do an outline clipart trace with a program like Corel? I do this often and it takes just seconds...

Just an update. I ended up spending a couple hours "playing" around with this and different settings. I tried the Armor All trick but, no difference on black granite. Dang! Didn't try the paint...

Thanks, Keith! I'll give that a try too. Your examples look amazing! Thank you :) I do have some tire dressing here but not the Armour All brand but will go pick some up to try :)

Ahh... I'll give that a try, Kev! I'm thinking this will only be acceptable though for pieces that will remain inside and not be placed outdoors because the paint probably won't last all that long...

Hello!


I'm a novice laser user and still figuring this thing out. I have an Epilog 36EXT 75watt. I tried my hand at laser engraving a black granite tile for the first time the other day. I...

That's good info for a beginner... and very convincing! LOL!!! Thank you again :)

Thanks very much for that info and advice! I will definitely do that before I try to laser it! Just a question though... would the laser itself also cause the flame to have some green in it? I...

Thanks, Kev! There are a number of YouTube videos of lasering TPE and I didn't see any special ventilation or other equipment and it looked like they just engraved them. :)

I'm more looking into...

Hey Guys!

I couldn't find anything saying a definitive YES so asking the experts :)

I know many yoga mats are made of PVC and that's a definite no-go for my CO2 Epilgo laser. However, I...

Thank you, Julian!

Thanks, guys! I'll try some experimenting and will keep the laser on the material a little longer and slow it down a bit. I might have some of the newer Cermark because I ordered it a few months...
