COMMENTS
Most marble and polished stones will turn white when engraved. Masking is not necessary and light
engraving works out better than heavy and deep engraving. Engraving deeply will cause a highly detailed
image to appear washed out. The objective is to engrave deep enough to turn the marble white and
provide a good contrast. Too much power can also cause the material to discolor and turn brown as if it
were burned. Photographs look great when engraved on marble, especially darker marbles where the
whiteness of the engraving really stands out. Avoid using marble that is very textured looking. The
texture washes out the details of the engraving. Try to use uniformly colored marble and related stones.
Marble can also be paint filled by using a wax based paint. Rub the paint on with a fingertip, let dry and
then buff with a soft cloth. The paint will only adhere to the engraved surface and not the surrounding
areas.
