My two cents worth of input on this subject. I have been using rowmark textured .062 with adhesive, black over white for over a year. the product is control panels, some with 96 half inch holes ,intended for high tech equipment used by the military. I had initial problems with the rastering and also the cutting. This is the way I do it now and have had no problems and no complaints. I have a 50 watt Explorer. Without masking: One pass only at speed 90, power 55, DPI 500, PPI 400. No air assist for rastering. Air assist for cutting Bottom to top engraving direction. Clean the cut panel with a light application of nail polish remover with acetone, and then with rubbing alcohol, 90 percent. When I use masking tape, I increase the power to 70 percent or do two passes at 55 percent. No cleanup in this process. I am getting excellent, sharp results. I hope this helps. Bachi

I just checked out the sign on my mailbox.

I have no idea how brittle it is, and it is wet so that may cover some imperfections. (It was adhered with acrylic adhesive tape.)

It still looks like the day it was mounted, even the faint marks from the spinning bit are there.

When you finally understand it completely... it changes.
