Textured Laminate?

[Sign Impressions]

Curious if anyone has seen a laminate like this?
Calipers put it at around 17mil.
It's textured. Kinda of like 40 grit sandpaper without the sharp edges.
Looks like mini pebbles, so to speak.

Thanks!

It could be 3M 3647 textured cast floor graphic laminate. It's 19 mil thick and has a textured surface.

Good call. Forgot about that one. Id say thats more likely.

Substance Media has a 20 mil one with a VERY rough texture.

Newbie question: How difficult is it to contour cut vinyl with laminate that thick? Can it be done with a typical print/cut machine? If so, what is the technique:

Depends on your layout, but if you have a lot of sharp or acute internal and external cuts, you'll definitely want a tangential cutter with a 45 degree blade.

Thank you. I found this: https://www.summa.eu/en/blog/DragvsTangential
On a drag knife, I assume you would use a 60 degree blade for the thicker material. Multiple passes too, I suppose?
