Step by step
Tips
1. To reduce the risk of flaming, cover the open areas of the laser bed to maximise extraction
2. Vector mark the design into the base plate to reduce requirement for manual alignment post-processing
3. Clean the base material with an anti-static cleaner to remove dust and debris created during laser processing
4. Do not use harsh chemicals to clean the material as this can damage the surface
Assembly
Clean the base material and leave to dry. Once dried, remove the adhesive backing from the cut elements and affix to the base material.
