Lightpipe texturing - vendor?

Lightpipe texturing - vendor?

Lightpipe texturing - vendor?

(OP)
I am looking for a vendor to apply light-extraction texturing to a lightpipe mold.  This usually isn't a typical Moldtech acid-etch texture, rather an extremely fine series of semi-circular features (or various other configurations) of varying density as you move further from the light source(s).  The applied textures are extremely fine though so the difficulty is in the application to the tooling.

Any info is appreciated.

RE: Lightpipe texturing - vendor?

Really?  I thought you just sandblasted it, or cut it with a chipped end mill.

Please let us all know when you find what you seek.  We might need it someday.
