About TruFlat 

TruFlat is a double-sided engineered wood surface with 100% wood fiber core designed to stay flat for laser cutting and engraving projects. Featuring a smooth pre-finish on both sides, you can engrave and wipe on paint fills with easy cleanup. You don't even need masking as the paint wipes right off!

TruFlat® is a proprietary process of layering engineered faux wood faces onto both sides of a MDF core sheet. The designer faux wood faces are created through a 6 step painting process to simulate a real wood grain look. The core is made of a defect free standard MDF (medium-density fiberboard) which allows for easy cutting with a laser, CNC router or scroll saw. TruFlat is always sold double sided, so no worries on which side is front or back. TruFlat is not a veneer or laminate material.

Is TruFlat plywood?

No. TruFlat is a brand term used to describe TruFlat’s pre-finished and guaranteed flat wood engineered for laser cutting and engraving. The term “plywood” refers to TruFlat’s layered tech which attaches 2 pieces of pre-finished engineered wood to a 100% solid wood MDF fiber core. TruFlat guarantees their product as good both sides and always flat.

How to Use

TruFlat should be handled the same as MDF, plywood, and acrylic normally would. When working with any of these materials, it’s important to operate in a well-ventilated space and utilize a dust collector and fume extraction system to ensure a safe working environment. TruFlat items are non-stainable due to the sublimation coating. 

TruFlat Paint does not have sublimation coated and is primed to be used for cutting and/or painting. All laser settings provided below for regular TruFlat also work for TruFlat Paint.

For laser engraving and cutting settings, please see our section below. 

What is TruFlat made of?

• 100% recycled/recovered wood fiber core
• Engineered Tru-Color & Tru-Wood designer faces
• Clear acrylic sublimation finish on both sides
  

What is TruFlat Paint - Pre-primed and made for cutting & painting!

TruFlat® Paint uses an ultra-high quality pure white primer to give customers a head start on their paint projects. No more doing 3+ paint coats on Raw MDF to get deep vibrant colors, or priming a base coat and waiting for it to dry. With TruFlat® Paint we worked with the factory to upgrade to their highest quality base primer and application technology to ensure our customers can achieve the fastest and best paint results ever with just one coat! 

Now you can just cut out your parts and go straight to painting with spray paint, brush, or rollers. You won't need to prep or do multiple coats because the luxury primer base is of such a high quality and ready for your final coat!

• No more prep or priming 
• No more multiple coats of color
• Affordable price
• Guaranteed flat
• TruFlat Paint is not for Sublimation
• TruFlat® plywood is always sold good 2 sides and is pressed onto a defect free MDF core for easy cutting.

Some customers may have issues cleaning the char edge marks. We suggest to clean with a micro fiber cloth and warm soapy water or LA’s Totally Awesome cleaner. We do not recommend using harsh chemicals.
