Adhesive foil, laser safe

I have a Glowforge Pro and I have a project where I need to cut stickers. I was looking for adhesive foil that’s laser safe and is available in Europe. Any suggestions or experiences what works & what not?

I’m aware that I shouldn’t cut vinyl foil with my laser. And I haven’t found a product that explicitly says that it’s good for laser cutters.

Searching the forum for “laserable foil” pretty quickly finds this:

Does not appear to be available in Europe, as getting yourself a customs broker is recommended.

This is not much help, I had a search a while ago and didn’t turn anything up. There must be some available though.

Isn’t it?

I googled “oracal 352 Europe” and found a seller immediately.

And since you’re in the uk why not this one too:

Seems pretty helpful unless I missed something.

Thanks guys. I’m surprised that the Oracal is apparently not available in „regular“ colors such as black, white, red, blue etc. - only metallic.
Is there another product / brand worth looking at that has a different selection of colors?

I’m based in Switzerland - that makes imports a bit more complicated than if I was in a member state of the European Union. There’s apparently one online shop that carries the Oracal stuff, but if I can find black or blue instead I’d gold / silver, I’d go for that.

Sorry for not being entirely precise in my first post.

it’s hard for us to know where you can get it because we aren’t anywhere near that area! lol
I think most of us who are active on this forum are in the United States.

Is there a group for people in your area who have lasers? Like on reddit or facebook or any type of platform like that? Or maybe just crafters in general if you know the name of the item you’re looking for, they might be able to help you.
