Laser Engraving Finish

When performing engraving jobs can you do a shallow engraving with a rough finish on clear acrylic?

I want to do a dual led lit computer window panel. I feel comfortable sanding or filing the edges of the acrylic panel, but I feel less comfortable sanding the design.

Engraving your logo onto clear cast acrylic, which is better than extruded acrylic for engraving, should give you the texture and color that you’re looking for. Engraved areas in cast acrylic have a sand-blasted texture, and turn frosty/milky. You can setup your vector format file for engraving by color-filling the engraved areas instead of outlining them like you would for cutting.
