> 3 dayThe substrate is supposed to be white but it is more of a dirty white/grey color so the engraving looks dirty. Not recommended.

> 3 dayAll the colors show a color layer, a white layer and then another color layer. They have a very very thin color layer, then a thick .039 white layer. I feel that the ad by the depicted display is out and out wrong. I will use them but, they are not what I ordered per ad as shown.

> 3 dayTried engraving it, it caught fire. I ended up having to throw my engraver out the window. It destroyed my engraver and the shirt I was wearing.

13-11-2024We used our 50W laser engraver at the lowest setting, and the results were terrible. The colored film bubbled at the edges and flaked off, and the melt patterns of the ABS are also bad. There are no guidelines as to what power settings should be used, so maybe a 50W is just too much. Im requesting a refund, and I do not recommend these for laser-engraving.

Greater than one weekThe substrate is supposed to be white but it is more of a dirty white/grey color so the engraving looks dirty. Not recommended if you are looking for a true white substrate.

> 3 dayI recently got a laser engraver and was acquiring some different blanks to use with it. I thought these would be good for making into smaller signs or even cutting into smaller shapes for things like badges or something. However, these do state Perfect For Rotary Engraving, but not 100% for laser. Unfortunately, that information seems to be buried in the listing, and I didnt pay attention to it. I was able to use it with my laser... sort of, but not well. I never got good results and if a black soot layer forms on it, its very difficult to get that off making the entire surface look dirty. More soot also seems to form on these than the ones meant for use with laser engraving. It also doesnt get as clean an edge on the designs you make in it. I still gave this 4 stars because its unfair to take them away when Im using it in a way they dont recommend. Despite the issues I had and the many hours playing around with settings to try and get it to work well, I was able to get a few decent signs out of these. The material is sturdy but not too heavy so it does work well for small signs and if you can get it cut nicely using a rotary engraver or somehow manage nice results with a laser then it makes nice signs and the contrast of white and blue looks good. If you have a rotary engraver these are probably great but if you have a laser engraver expect more disappointing results. They do sell blanks intended for use with laser engravers so Id recommend just finding the size/color in the blanks they do recommend for laser use.

Greater than one weeknot as described in title. The item title says .06 thick, but I measured each and every one and they are only .04. They are, however, easy to to do the score and bend to snap into smaller pieces. take a flat edge, carefully gently slide the edge of a box cutter to score, or use something like a manual slide the blade thing with mounted blade, about 10 times to make a groove, bend it against an edge to break, snapping into smaller pieces, then use a knife to trim the edges if any bits are sticking out. so to grade for star ranking: 5 stars for great sampler pack of different colors. 3 star for each sheet that is NOT .06 thick but instead .04. good enough for name tags, but still not as described. all 12 that I got were only .04 so that is 36 points for all 12 sheets + 5 points for variety = 41. and then divide that by 13 (counting variety as 13th thing to grade on) to get the average = 3.153846153846154. rounding that to nearest star vote choice means 3 star.
