DualTite Adhesive Sheets

How to Use Adhesive Sheets with Acrylic
- Prepare Your Acrylic: Start by removing one side of the protective masking (paper or clear film) from your acrylic sheet.
- Apply the Adhesive: Replace the masking with the adhesive sheet, carefully aligning it on the exposed acrylic surface.
- Cut Your Design: Cut your design with the adhesive side facing up and ensure your design is mirrored for accurate assembly.
- Assemble Your Project: After cutting, remove the protective film from the adhesive backing. Then, assemble your project, similar to using double-sided tape.
Laser Cutting Tips
When using adhesive sheets, you may need to adjust your laser cutting settings. The adhesive layer adds thickness to your material, which can affect the precision of your cuts. Always run a test cut before working on the final design.
