2Signvec manufactures engraving materials, which
you can get in a variety of colors, thicknesses
and finishing options, which you can find to test
the color of the engravings when using engraving
equipment.
3There are a number of approaches you can take and
the three most popular coloring methods for using
engraving equipments are oxidizing, paint stick
and paint filling. Oxidizing uses a mild acid to
blacken the engraving performed on brass or
aluminum.
4Since the oxidizing is not selected on where it
works on the engraving equipment, it can be used
only on metals that already have some kind of
coating which is already removed through the
engraving process. Brass has a lacquer coating or
a similar finish and the aluminum is usually
coated with lacquer or it can be anodized.
5Remove that end with engraving tools such as a
diamond graver, burning or rotary cutter so that
the exposed areas can be blackened with the
antioxidant solution without affecting the rest
of the plate.
6Oxidizing substance is best applied with the
cotton swabs as opposed to a dauber and always
remember to keep the engraver free from oil or
fingerprints. Apply the oxidizer as soon as the
engraving process is complete so the full effect
of the oxidation can be applied to the process.
7Paint Stick - Applying a color to the work of
engraving equipment can be done only on rotary
engraved plates which have sufficient depth. This
is usually done using paint through a paint stick
that looks like a large crayon and they come in a
variety of colors and are easy to use.
8You just start by shaving the end of the paint
stick to remove the skin on it, then rub the
stick across the engraving as if using the crayon
until all the letters are filled, wipe off the
excess paint with a paper towel as well.
9Both alcohol and paint thinner work well in
removing any excess film that does not wipe away
easily, but you will find it much easier to let
the paint dry overnight and later wash it with
warm water.
10Paint sticks are convenient and durable, but they
don't have smooth gloss that you'll get from
actual paint. Provides excellent options for
colorizing the work of engraving equipment when
it comes to paint filling materials, colors and
applications.
11Metals and rigid plastics generally work best
with fast-drying, oil based enamel with mineral
spirits for cleaning. Soft plastics and other
materials may be damaged by caustic solvents, but
acrylic paints work best with alcohol or water
used for cleanup.
12Aside from the paint, you will also need a brush,
an old phone book or newspaper and stiff pieces
of tough paper closer to the size and weight of
your average business card. Always make sure that
the engraving is smooth, burr free and have
enough depth in holding the paint. When using
engraving equipment, you will need colourful
options.
13The exact method depends on the material and
depth of the paint. Coloring gives the engraver
more to work during the creation of an attractive
sign with eye catching lettering and it is always
best to have options.
