I have a red-black Ruida 500x700 size laser.
I want to use Trolase Metallic in my laser, someone can tell me with what value of power and speed I could start to engrave and cut.
Thank you
MIami, FL

Welcome to the board Eduardo- It will not take a lot of power to engrave thru the thin color layer but you will need to experiment a bit, and some colors are harder. In my experience a red cap on white plastic is pretty much the hardest. Engrave from the bottom up so as not to have the debris blowing over the freshly engraved surface and sometimes it is helpful to increase your focus distance to aid in melting the plastic more than vaporizing it.
