Acrylic scratches easily, so be careful cleaning or if you need to sand some rough edges, use finishing grit sandpaper (360-600 grit).
After finishing engraving acrylic, it is advised to get as much of the engraving particles off of the project by rolling up some masking tape and tapping up and down lightly to remove it.
