Laser Foil has been a staple in the laser engraving world for years, yet its full potential remains underappreciated. Unlike traditional paint fill, Laser Foil is a laser-safe color laminate made from thin polyester mylar tape. This durable material adds a stunning metallic luster to any laser engraving project, and its permanent adhesive bonds seamlessly to smooth surfaces, allowing the material to be engraved, marked, or cut to produce intricate metallic effects quickly and effortlessly.
In this video, I will demystify Laser Foil and show you its versatility. Whether you’re a seasoned professional or a curious beginner, Laser Foil can transform your laser graphics with astonishing detail with dazzling metallic finishes.

How does it stay on the leather? You didn’t seal it in any way.
@TrotecLaser
@TrotecLaser Месяц назад
Laser Foil has a permanent adhesive that will continue to bond better with time; if it is going to be on something that will be handled a lot, it may need to be sealed to make it even more durable as this is a surface adhesive material, I did not seal this example in the video.

How durable and permanent is the laser foil on wood or acrylic? Seems it peels off easily after each project meaning that the other foil might come off easily over time?
@TrotecLaser
@TrotecLaser Месяц назад
This material becomes more robust with time. After a few days, it is bonded tight and becomes very challenging to remove from any smooth surface like finished wood or acrylic. It is a surface material, making it less durable than a paint fill. It is more prone to scratching, so I would not use this on something that is going to be handled every day, like a tumbler, yes it will work, but it will not hold up to the punishment of a dishwasher and cup holders; this material works best for things like ornaments, signage, and decor.

cool video. Isn't the foil going to peel off the leather binder though? How are you going to protect the bond?
@TrotecLaser
@TrotecLaser Месяц назад
This material becomes more robust with time. After a few days, it is bonded tight and becomes very challenging to remove from any smooth surface, including smooth surface leather. As I said in the video, adding a clear sealant will improve durability, but this was not shown in the video on the leather. However, note that this is a "surface material," making it less durable than a paint fill or just engraving it. Because of this, it is more prone to scratching and damage.
@jamesh3602
@jamesh3602 29 дней назад
Hi Dave. Great video content. May I ask an extension to your sub-surface foiling use-case? Can this be applied to an embossed design which recedes below the material surface level. If so, is the a limit to the resolution of the details? Thank you.
@TrotecLaser
@TrotecLaser 29 дней назад
This process should work; however, the depth and detail must be kept within certain limits. Excessive detail may cause the process to fail, so I would advise some testing on some scrap materials to find your limits.
@jamesh3602
@jamesh3602 28 дней назад
@@TrotecLaser As an alternative, would precious metal (e.g., gilding), with or without a spray adhesive allow better preservation of embossed details. Would you follow that with an epoxy topcoat to increase durability?
@TrotecLaser
@TrotecLaser 28 дней назад
I have tried this, but it is far more complex. Gilding is more of an art form, and it takes practice. The laser cannot cut real metals, so it would have to be completed by hand into the engraving with a mask down into the engraved material surface. And yes, it needs to be clear-coated for protection.
