I do a lot of laser engraving with Thermark with great success. However, Pewter is not one of them. We rotary engrave pewter or if its a plate that needs design we laser engrave on material and cut it to fit the piece ie. a plate and it looks great but Thermark does not stay on pewter as it does on other products.

Only time I have done Pewter with Thermark. Turned out nicely IMHO.
Of course it was an accident...........I wasn't thinking and didnt check what material it was and assumed it was stainless steel. I dont have THAT good of luck when I think I know what I am doing............. :O)
Settings for my 30W were 75p 25s.
