Finish on soft plastics

[Dean jeffery]

The photos do make things look worse than appear, the cut lines can't be felt with the nail when run on the edge.

Every time I've cut that material I've only had 2 decent results one been above, that's why I posted up I was convinced the speeds and feeds was the reason.

But I'm now leading towards the materials spec is way off, the customer sends the material I just cut it.

It's cheap from direct plastic and tbh if not personally buy from there, nothing comes new and never as protective film on.

Cheers for the help and suggestions though guys.

I'm not sure in what way is a plastic likely to be "off spec" that would cause a surface finish like that, it looks more like a tooling/machine issue.

I see shadows along those lines and that means the surface is not even. If it can be felt with your nails or not is another thing and depends on your own personal finger sensitivity.
