COMMENTS
Leather is a very simple material to engrave and most types of leather engrave very well with the laser
system. Simulated leather engraves well also, but the results are not as nice as with the real thing.
Engraving lightly will turn the surface of the leather dark brown giving it a high contrast in appearance.
Try engraving at a light power setting first. If the result is not deep enough the job can be run again over
the same spot. Experiment with different depths of engraving and note the results.
