All of it!

12 mil is almost a half inch (25.4 mil/inch), quite thick for laminate
flooring.


I am assumed mm, but I copied the mil. My mistake, and probably the ops
as well.

All the laminate I've seen is speced in total thickness and in mm.

I believe one mil is one thousandth of an inch. If so, 12 mil, about the
thickness of 4 sheets of paper would probably just refer to the surface
thickness of the laminate.

That seems like a reasonable number for the photographic layer, so
perhaps.

But I see that 12mm laminate is not uncommon (not that I've seen it), so
it seems more likely the OP is mistaken.
