FAQs

• Is recycled cast acrylic good for laser cutting? Yes, Green Cast Setacryl® is ideal for CO2 laser cutting, producing clean, glossy edges.

• Can I use a diode laser with this acrylic? Diode lasers (5W–20W) can engrave with a frosted finish but may require multiple passes to cut 3mm sheets due to opacity.

• Can I thermoform or glue this acrylic? Yes, it’s thermoformable and compatible with acrylic adhesives; remove protective film after fabrication for best results.

• How do I clean recycled acrylic? Use a mild soap solution or plastic cleaner with a lint-free cloth. Avoid alcohol or ammonia-based cleaners to prevent damage.
