Full Version: Lasering on brass

Without knowing what settings you are using, I would suggest a slow speed with a high power. Brass absorbs heat like a sponge so you have to make sure the power is high to make a mark. At least, that was the explanation I got when I tried brass. I'm certainly no scientist LOL.

Yep, it had a finish on it, but I got lucky and got the Cermark to lay on pretty good. I took Stunt Engravers suggestion and ran the laser across it first, then applied the Cermark and ran it again. They came out real nice. Thanks much!
