Dave:
This has got me stumped. One would think that acid would be visible under magnification, however, The surface is smoother than the anodized that has been photoengraved by the laser. All of this sounds so labor intense for a small 2x3 pc. that I would think should take all of 15 min to produce. My bro works in the steel industry perhaps time to call him as well. I am almost certain this is aluminum and not stainless.
Thanks for you help.
Mike

It sounds like it may be "MetalPhoto", which is a photo-sensitive anodized aluminum used for making custom nameplates and panels for short run electronic equipment.
