    Drilling Holes for Standoffs in Chromaluxe

    Has anyone got a great process for drilling or dye punching holes on Chromaluxe. Would love to hear your successes and what equipment you would recommend. Concerned about chipping.

    Do you do enough to invest in a punch?
    If you send them a sample/offcut they will do a test cut tocheck suitability.

    We have punches for metal and leather, and find drilling gives much better results for both materials
