does it really need to spray the acrylic before the engrave? I have Ortur Master 3

Can you list the spray paint used and the thinner used? I have sprayed mine black, but no thinner I have tried will remove it! Acetone works, but damages the acrylic too...

Thanks for the video. Do you engrave the top of the acrylic where the paint is? I've seen others using tempera paint for the clear acrylic and placing it paint down, focusing on the bottom and not on the top like you did, and engraving the bottom and not the top. I am asking because I ruined several acrylic sheets. I am wondering if this is going to work for me. I have a 20watt module, so I need to adjust the settings. The machine used in this video is 10watts, right? Thanks again for the video.

What settings are you using for speed and oower on the laser?

Bonjour, peut-on avoir les paramètres pour LightBurn ? merci

Can you actually CUT the acrylic with the OLM3? It's pricing is competitive with the XTOOL and they have a 40W that can cut through clear acrylic. Just curious.

What kind of paint are you using - just flat black spray paint?

You need to place another plate under the mesh so you do not burn the cover. I know its only for engraving but you know we will cut with it :)
