I have an order for 50 Gatsby (Sierra clone?) pens in TN Gold with 25 barrels in Dymondwood and 25 in BOW. All finished with CA/BLO and Ren Wax. I have almost completed them.
The customer requires their corporate name (no logo) engraved on the barrel in gold. I am completely ignorant in the engraving/lazer processes. There are many shops in Singapore who do all kinds of lazer/silk screening etc which is alien to me. I need to understand before I approach them.
I would be be grateful for advice on how to approach this.
These guys here only take instructions and I must be clear or they may ruin my pens.
Questions. Can Lazer be finished in gold? Are there alternatives?
What other ways can it be done , what do I have to do on top of the engraving to prevent the gold from flaking or just leave it as is? Just many thoughts come to my mind.
I would be grateful for any thougts on this or other appoaches to this problem.
Grateful for guidance .
