Maker Tip: We cut and engrave mirror acrylic through the back of the material. As such, ensure that your design has been flipped or “mirrored;” otherwise it will be fabricated back to front.
By default, the material will be placed coated side up in the laser cutter, so any engraving will be on the coating. The engraving will remove the reflective coating making that section of the acrylic translucent. If you want to engrave on the glossy side of the material, make a note in the shipping instructions for your order.

The photos are a good way to show the material, but would it be possible to include a video of one one these? I’d to see how reflective it is, and how the light hits it from different angles It could be as simple as a slow rotation of a cut piece.
