Reverse Engraving for an Elegant Appearance

Trotec's TroLase Reverse laminates were designed for creating reverse engraved signs. The reverse engraving creates an elegant appearance and the designs create a smooth surface that allows for simple cleaning.

The process of reverse engraving is similar to standard engraving on the front in the first layer. Materials for this application are usually 2-ply with a clear surface and a colored layer on the back. Reverse engraving is accomplished by engraving a mirror image of the job on the reverse side of the surface, and then filling in the engraved spots with color paint.

Infill the design

Fill the engraving with acrylis paints to create a multicolored sign or back light for a modern glow. The signage maintains a smooth outer layer and is easy to clean, making it perfect for both interior and exterior signage, badges, safety signs and control panels.
