Hey jbv!
I only applied this technique on the acrylic components on this occasion, although you could apply the same technique if a flexible ‘paint’ or infill material was used. You can find acrylic leather paints made by fiebings or similar that would likely do a great job. As the laser produces a lot of carbon in the engrave, I’d recommend you clean out as much carbon as possible and probably apply a white base coat to ensure your color pops.
- Cover part with transfer tape.
- Laser engrave design
- Keeping transfer tape in place, in fill design with desired finish.
- Remove transfer tape and enjoy!
