  • Summary

    I've been trying to determine the best setting to use to fill engraved wood with powder paint. The effect can be a brilliant color contrast, but I've done most of my powder paint projects by masking and using a heat gun after engraving. I've never been able to fine tune my settings enough to figure out the best options to have the laser cure the paint.
    
    I finally got around to running these tests. Hopefully you'll be able to follow similar steps to determine the settings that work best for your machine, material, and paint.
