Deep engraving – we don't paint, machine cuts really deep

Posted by Marina•3 months ago

Someone asked how we get the lettering so visible. We don't paint or fill – our CNC just cuts really deep. Everything reads clear. Anyone else work that way or do you prefer paint fill for contrast?

We do deep cut too. No paint. Clients like that it won't fade or chip. Downside is it takes longer but worth it imo.

Same. We tried paint fill years ago and had complaints when it faded. Deep engrave only now.

We offer both – deep only costs more, paint fill cheaper. Most go for deep when we explain the difference.
