Greater than one weekI really like this for use in my K40 laser - it cuts and etches consistently, seems to have less of an odor, and has an interesting frosted finish on both sides. The frosting makes it a little tricky to use - since the edges are shiny and transparent, any inconsistency or irregularity of the edge is readily obvious. This is. very interesting aesthetically, but shows off your mistakes! One of my favorite features is plastic liner on one side, paper on the other. This way I can cut the paper side (protecting against fume deposits on the surface), and not have to remove it (or use blue tape) or melt another layer of plastic. I havent figured out how to take advantage of the frosted finish yet, but I look forward to finding out.

> 3 dayHard to tell on a black background but it is slightly opaque. That ends up being a bit different on black than say the red but still ok. Used this for some lettering on a glitter gold background and came out fantastic. This is the 4th color I have gotten from X tool and all have been exactly as described. Definitely will continue to pick these up.

> 3 dayThe sellers web description says 12 x 12 Plastic Sheet with 1/25 Inch Thickness but actual size of items I received was about 11-11/16 inch square, or 297.5mm in metric - well short of 12 inches. (See uploaded image.) The thickness was 1.0mm as measured with a digital caliper, which is close enough to 1/25 inch as described. Otherwise the acrylic sheets looked great, and arrived well packaged in bubble envelope inside a protective cardboard box. Im giving it 4 stars due to the inaccurate size descriptions.

> 3 dayAs this was an Xtool Selected product and I was using it with my Xtool D1 Pro 20W laser, I felt pretty confident this would work well. First off, it arrived in a bubble wrap envelope inside a cardboard branded box. Each sheet is masked on front and back. With acrylic being so prone to scratches, I was really happy to see it so well-protected. You get 3 12x12 sheets inside the package. The red is a bright red and glossy on both sides. Each sheet is 5mm thick. Previously, I had only tried 3mm acrylic and the 5mm feels much more substantial. This stuff is THICK. For my first try, I used the Xtool Creative Space pre-programmed settings for 5mm red acrylic. Engraving comes out a nice frosted, lighter red color that is definitely easy to read for text. The suggested cut settings also worked well and popped right out (when I had the laser focused correctly), but there is a little melting on the bottom half of the cut (see photo). Its likely not an issue for most projects, but I may try lowering the focus a bit more and/or a few other tweaks to see if I can get it a little cleaner. As with lasering all acrylics, you want to make sure you are venting the fumes properly. For the amount and quality of the acrylic, Id say this is a pretty good buy and I will definitely purchase more in colors that work with my diode laser.

> 3 dayI have been using various other materials to cut with my blue laser system. This plastic was amazing - the results were clean cut edges and very little melting.
