Description
Laser-cut mirrors, by sight indistinguishable from glass mirror, with numerous applications.
Material properties
Acrylic mirror is composed of a transparent acrylic backing with a mirrored backing. The mirrors are crystal clear and free of wrinkles, creating a flawless mirror image. The mirrors are available in both natural (silver mirror) and gold mirror.
Appearance
Mirror acrylic is good for laser cutting. The cutting edge does not discolor and the cutting process leaves no marks. Flat engraving is possible and is done by default on the reverse side. This makes the mirror layer disappear at the location of the engraving and the material becomes transparent there. This produces a good contrast, while the front of the mirror remains smooth. Line engraving is also possible and also produces a high-contrast translucent line. Line engraving is also done from the back as standard.
Typical applications
With this material, mirrors can be made in any shape or pattern, or even reflective sculptures. It is used as an attention grabber in displays or billboards, and of course for lamps and lighting applications.
Finish
The material does not require finishing. The visible side is covered with protective film, the other side is gray or white.
Please note when using acrylic that it is scratch-sensitive. Cleaning can be done with a soft cloth; however, never use abrasives or a scouring pad. Any scratches can be polished away with polishing compound.
Connections
Gluing acrylic is possible, but solvent-based glues are not recommended for laser-cut parts. Acrylic is easily attached with double-sided adhesive film.
