Sorry for the inconvenience!
better way to remove the mask from inside the letters is to use a dental pick. It tends to not scratch the substrate or cut the masking tape.
That turned out beautiful. Thanks for sharing the tips.
So many small tips contained in this one video! The end product looks amazing too.
awesome, loved the way you got to the point without going thru the basics of how to use the laser or software. great job
Excellent tutorial! Possibilities are limitless❤️
Great video with clear instructions - thank you!
Thank you for a video on a practical method of coloring laser etching.
Very nice end result, well done !
You added value to my life thank you!
Good demo, thanks!
Thanks a lot for your easy and simple tutorial with great content
beautiful work!
Excellent job!
An excellent instructional presentation By a lovely lady Who knows what she’s doing. Thankyou.
I find your videos very helpful! Also, I just wanted to point out...I love your Color Street nails! :D
Great video and technique! I've been watching "UA-cams" videos for 3 hrs looking for a solution to my problem, WOW I think I found it! My project is to have a Compass Rose, Laser cut into a Maple Table Top which has been already stained. After painting the craving, I'll be able to apply the Top Coat of finish. By the way, I started out trying to use Epoxy Inlay but that got involved and expensive.
I'm looking forward to seeing added stone products (marble & granite) to JDS's line. Then a video like this one, but specifically for marble and granite.
Wow, I'm equally impressed by the size of that masking tape, I had no idea it came in rolls that size.
It comes even bigger than that and it's cheap. It's called application tape - search for sign suppliers.
It's used in the vinyl signwriting trade, google transfer or liftoff tape.
It's called Vinyl Transfer Tape or Mask. But it's not vinyl (bad for your laser) but actually a paper based masking that is used for vinyl cutouts like lettering and such. Then the vinyl letters can be affixed to a glass door for example, the tape or masking peeled off and the vinyl remains on the door. You've probably seen it on commercial establishments.
The paper based version comes in a couple of handy widths - 12" & 6" are the two I use most. The length of the rolls vary, but be careful because the cost per foot for the shorter rolls is often very high. I've seen 100 foot rolls cost almost as much as 100 *yard* rolls.
You can get it online including from Amazon - just make sure it's not made from vinyl, just for vinyl transfer. Especially good if it says it's laser safe.
@@jimhatch5873 which do you use from amazon? I ordered their (fake) 3m 200 and 201 and it sucks donkey balls. It bleeds worse than a Charles Manson victim. Not to mention it tears like tissue paper when you try and get it off the roll.
I say the stuff from amazon is (fake) because it's not real 3m masking tape. It's knock off even though it has 3m printed on the inside of the tube.
Wonderful wonderful instructional for example thank you
Enduramask is a product similar to this. It's available in rolls from 2" wide up to 4' wide for vinyl cutters. It's low/medium tack and works great. Tape, engrave/cut, spray paint, peel and you're done.
Wow - thanks for showing
beautiful work
Great tuorial! Thanks
Thank you for sharing this
Interesante la forma de impresión, esa técnica combinada me gustó mucho, se agradece la información, saludos cordiales 🖐️ desde Chile 🇨🇱
you can also use the same masking tape to pull the 'weeds' Just take a strip and press it down over the area you are weeding and the 'weeds' will peel right off...
Nice tip.. thanks
nice tip thanks
I did my project that way. Its faster too as engraving takes a bit longer.
brilliant !!!
Great videos
Thank you!!!
Thanks good job
Thanks .. that helped me
thank you!
Thank you
Wow, this video was great. It was quick, easy to understand, no annoying needless music and the results speak for themselves. This plaque looks great. Where do you get that 'black' wood? I subscribed.

Thank you!
Nice !!!!
Enjoyed your video, I couldn’t get the sound to come on but it was very educational.
Same here. Very weird, because I got sound the second time I played it.
Sorry about that. Unfortunately during recording a mic setting got bumped. On certain devices the audio doesn't play correctly. We have found watching on a phone or similar device plays the audio correctly!
@@JDSINDUSTRIES sounded good on my computer
Greta video. I didn't know there was laser paper like that. I wondered how people got color on the work.
Yes, Same transfer masking tape used for vinyl lettering/stickers….i buy mine from USCutters. I use it all over the shop😎
it is not laser paper. it is transfer tape used in vinyl transfer. can be purchased at any sign or silkscreen supply shop.
It's not laser paper it is low tack masking for transfering cut vinyl lettering for signs.
For small details like text, leave the void and then smear a two part filler / modelling putty into the void after printing. This can work on surfaces at any orientation, not just flat top and bottom surfaces.
Briilliant
Great video. In case you want to use the technical term, picking is called weeding.
I used to weed like this then I learned that if you put duct tape over the engraved letters it weeds for you. No picking necessary and the application tape comes off intact too.
Awesome job. How did you do the black coat? Just spray paint, let it dry then do clear? It was so shiny that made it beautiful.
The gloss is from the the Black Piano Finish Plaque. You can view them on the JDS website here: bit.ly/3q97Eu9
wow!!! thanks so much. just bought a laser (actually 4 months ago, but only arriving now) and looking for any ideas to help pay off this very expensive purchase.
Laser stufff
so does it have to be spray paint or can i use like wood paint
Without subtitle? You are only speaking to Americans! Still, I gave it a like.
BRILLIANT! I would think you'd want the paint to soak into the wood, regardless, is that clear coat a matt finish lacquer?
The product we used in this video was our LazerDark Clear Coat. Part number LDK200 on the JDS Industries website. It is a semi-transparent spray for enhancing the laser engraved area on most types of wood. Hope this helps!
Great video! Learned a lot on this one. A few questions about cutting boards though. You use this same technique? Wouldn't the paint chip and peel over time, or is more for charcuterie boards?
We have paint-filled cutting boards before. They are mostly just used for decoration purposes then but there are different sealants that some put on like some food safe oils and it seems to be fine. Wouldn’t recommend filling a whole board with engraving and use it but if it’s just a corner of it I’d say it’s fine. Hope this helps!
@@JDSINDUSTRIES this cleared things right up for me. Thank you!
@@JDSINDUSTRIES What type of paint did you use for the cutting boards
and what tools? Also if for outdoor signs, what sealant would you recommend for acrylic paints?
@@kariforrest9960 The paint we used is Rustoleum but most spray paints can be used! As for a sealant, it would depend on the substrate. If you are still thinking wood, something like a Krylon UV-Resistant Clear Coat should work.
Can you please tell me the name of the masking tape and where to buy? Thanks for the great video.
Great video and thanks for posting. Does the masking tape come in a larger size? I need more than 12 inches wide.

THANKS, I was wondering how to fill color, I really appreciate your time, what are the brands you use?
Rust-Oleum is usually what we use!
How often do you need to clean the laser from the tape ??
Is it me or is the sound messed up, cant hear anything, volume to low? I still got the concept but audio explanation would be great. Good video!
Sorry about that. Unfortunately during recording a mic setting got bumped. On certain devices the audio doesn't play correctly. We have found watching on a phone or similar device plays the audio correctly!

Hello there:
This may be a silly question, but: Can you, instead of using a tool to remove the inner parts of the letters, just put another piece of masking tape to cover the letters, and make the first masking tape stick to the new one, and rip both at the same time?
I know that's a waste of material (masking tape), but it should be quicker, easier, and without the risk of scratching the product.
Thank you and greetings from Argentina.
Marcelo Miguel Bazan.
You may still need to manually remove smaller pieces but using tape should work !
What kinda material is that you engraved on? Looks smooth and shiny! So magnificent work.
The material is the Black Piano Finish Plaque from JDS! You can view them on the JDS website here: bit.ly/3q97Eu9
Qow, thank you! Can i ask whs plack you used, it was so super shiney!

Awesome video! You might try Gorilla Tape or Duct Tape to remove the masking as well, assuming it doesn't mess up the paint. I haven't tried it on painted objects yet, but it does wonders weeding unpainted wood and acrylic!
Oh!!
Please send me the link of where to get that piano black plate from !

What would you suggest for color-filling lasered glass? Rub & Buff type or something else (I want to avoid overspray so rubbing might be best???)
Rub & Buff should work!
What the main font you used on this plaque?
Sorry if this is a silly question I’m still new to laser engraving, but would the tape not set fire? I think this is great idea but I’m afraid to use incase it would set the tape on fire
The tape will not catch fire!
Good day learnt a lot there ..shirt video but quite informational..wanted to find out about the black..what type of paint and how did you get the gloss?
The paint we used is Rustoleum but most spray paints can be used!

i just purchased a wecreat, which a diode laser cutter, can this method be used with a diode laser cutter using 3mm basswood?
It looks like you should be able to use this same process!
Awesome. Where ya get those3 black plaques?

Would the masking tape be able to get transferred using transfer paper? In my case i want to paint plastic which is not laser safe
This tape melts with plastic, so we wouldn't recommend using it to paint fill plastic. We wouldn't recommend paint filling plastic. If you need further information we'd be happy to help! Give us a call at 800.843.8853.
Important details - What kind of masking tape, and what kind of paint? Thanks.
Mid to high tack masking tape. Here is an example: bit.ly/3uqZu3c
The paint we used is Rustoleum but most spray paints can be used!
I'm trying to find a way to maintain the color of the wood after burning, ie. American flags, the union, star field, after I paint the wood blue I want to burn out the stars I want to keep them white? Any tips?
This would require a multiple taping and laser process, covering different areas at different times while painting it. This would be a good topic for another video. Thank you! In the mean time, our fabrication department would be able to help with a more detailed explanation. You can reach them at 855.537.2228!
Hello, 'JDS Industries', my questions are .....1) I have a small tree of engraved parts, a model, with some fine etched detail. A Good majority of these parts needed to be "painted", so do I need that tape or do I just 'clear coat it', let dry, then spray the color I want? 2) What type/brand of paint do you recommend.......in your video, It looks like 'Krylon'?
Thanks for your time.
Masking off any area with tape that you don't want painted is important if you plan on painting. It is best to mask before engraving.
We use Rust-o-leum here most of the time. Krylon we use for glass. Hope this helps!
@@JDSINDUSTRIES Roger That, 'JDS'!! Thanks for the reply back and info. I did use a 'Rust-o-leum' Product with Great Success!!
As far as masking I was able to remove the parts ...... That didn't need painted, so no problems there.
But thanks for the assistance. :)
Nice! What is that nice glossy black?
The gloss is from the the Black Piano Finish Plaque! You can view them on the JDS website here: bit.ly/3q97Eu9
I use lightburn, so the lingo may not entirely transfer, but do you uuse fill or line? Fill is the laser burning everything within the letter and line is essentially tracing the letter. Thank you!
Fill!
This is what I was wondering. I have used fill before and it left residue. I have a diode laser tho….I’ll have to test out different settings. Thanks for the video!
@@suburbansurvival5711 Adjusting your speed to faster should help solve the residue issue!
Could I use removable vinyl instead of the masking tape? I Have a lot of the vinyl from my cricut.
Most vinyl is not safe for lasers. If it is laser safe, when you're rasterizing it (not vector cutting it) it’s most likely to melt onto your wood surface and leave extra sticky residue. You're mileage may vary as we don't have a ton of experience using vinyl as a masking tape. Hope this helps!
@@JDSINDUSTRIES It does. I did not even think about it melting! Thanks for getting back to me! :)
Where did you get the black wood cause you’re talking about engraving on wood and it looks like black tile pieces or something.
The gloss is from the the Black Piano Finish Plaque. You can view them on the JDS website here: bit.ly/3q97Eu9
What brand of paint is the best to use when painting acrylic?
We use Rustoleum if the product is being masked and lasered. Rub n Buff if the product is already lasered!
Can this tape be used with a fiber laser or is is co2 only?
Yes. It can be used with a fiber laser!
Hello. Have you ever tried lasering chocolate to make words ?
Unfortunately, the heat of a laser would probably be too much for chocolate!
Can we paint fill on acrylic just like how we do on wood?
The masking tape we used in this video wouldn't work with acrylic as it would most likely melt to it. Unfortunately JDS doesn't have a mask offering that works with acrylic at this time. Hope this helps!
how do you get that shiny black finish.

Do you use paper tape or plastic/vinyl tape on to of the product? Thanks.
Paper Tape! Plastic/vinyl tape does not mix well with the heat of the laser.
@@JDSINDUSTRIES thanks
U should reupload with audio
We have! That video is available here: ua-cam.com/video/E1Vrf3vOJkU/v-deo.html
whats make is the clear coat spray?
Laser Dark!
Will it work on small cursive writing ? I had a lady write a recipe and we engraved it on walnut (her choice) we are pretty new to this but you can’t see the writing very well , it’s on a cutting board and takes up almost the space
Small detail does work, but can be trickier. It needs to dry longer. And really ensure the masking is down well before and after engraving. Using a blank sheet of paper and squeegee to go over it to make sure the tape is down really well before spraying it. Then a clear coat before the color of choice, letting it dry really well and when going back to weed it be very careful. Hope this helps!
what is first spay ?
The first spray we used in this video was our LazerDark Clear Coat. Part number LDK200. Hope this helps!
what did you coat your wood with first
In this video, we applied a clear coat first. The product we used in this video was our LazerDark Clear Coat. Part number LDK200. Hope this helps!

Hi- Re-asking
Spraying without a mask ? TUT TUT TUT !!!
So what setting is “just right?” Lol. Is it neutral?
I am not the OP, but I am a woodworker that uses a laser. The answer will depend on your laser type and power AND the making material that you use. EG: The settings for someone using a 5 watt diode laser and 3M yellow masking tape would be different than someone using a 100 watt co2 and Frog Tape. What I personally did was take a piece of scrap and cover it with mask material then ran speed & power tests to find the "just right" setting. Those settings will likely change if you change masking material and possibly the material you're engraving on. I hope this helps.
Your masking tape does not stick to bamboo. Try using a piece of Duct Tape to remove the inside pieces of the letters.
Video no sound 😅

Clear coats a top coat. I’d prefer colour then gold. I want the colour to adhere to the wood not the clear coat. But each to their own
sound's broken

No mask when spray paint ?
