How should I determine the optimal engraving settings for leatherette?

When engraving leatherette, the key is to start with your machine's recommended settings for synthetic materials and adjust from there. Begin with a moderate speed and a low to medium power level to prevent burning or excessive melting. Conduct a series of test engravings on a scrap piece of leatherette, gradually adjusting the power and speed until you achieve a clear, sharp engraving without damaging the material. Pay attention to the contrast and depth of the engraving, aiming for a balance that highlights your design while preserving the integrity of the leatherette.
