My biggest award client also uses a blue marblized "brass". Except taht when I bought the brass it looked awful; tried everybody's coated steel and finally found a really good quality product at Continental Trophy at about twice the price of everybody else. It looks twice as good.
The number that I buy is M74-BL.

The laser blk/gold laser steel is burnishable.
Like you, I wouldn't welcome the rusted edge factor.

For trophies, I use black laser sublimation on gold aluminum. Readable, quick and inexpensive.

Good point. Even faster than the laser.
Seems the answers are as varied as the members. Not really surprised.

LOL! Yeah, but the machine does a neater job than I do (while still keeping my fingers attached to my hands, that is). :P Besides, I'd rather let the machine do the hard work while I sit at my computer chatting with you nice folks. :-)
