To prepare, I use Titandioxid, mixed with Isopropanol in a spray bottle. For speed drying I use a heat gun - ready to engrave in 5 minutes. After engraving, clear the tile under water and enjoy 🙂 regards from Germany

Iam fairly new using a laser i have the xTool D1 and i am using my own photography wildlife and other photos for placing on the tiles using the methods you show in this video. i am not really understanding the photo adjustments. my photos are high resolution and i would say need little adjustment in photoshop. however what are we looking for in adjustments for laser engraving on tiles. i have run some photos but some have been to dark and others too light. so what am i looking for in the adjustment? or is it the speed and power used. you dont happen to have a video on adjustments to photos

Paw paw, I know you said 500mm/min 60% power.. But on what wattage laser? 5w? 10w? I'm ready to try this😁

All are great lasers. The xTool D1 is outstanding however, you must learn how to effectively use the red cross hairs. It’s definitely different from other lasers. The FOXAlien with the 40 watt laser is very similar to the Sculpfun S9. I do find that the focus on the S9 is a little better

The paint must have titanium oxide in it to work. In the US, Rustoleum white or Smokey beige works well. Many of the litter colors have titanium oxide in them. So, the color is not the most important element.

I noticed in your first example, you had set up LightBurn so that laser was scanning on quite an angle, not simply straight across the tile. Was there any advantage to doing that? Thanks
