Up to you. As long as it seals the grain it'll be fine.

@lasermike2147 3 года назад

This is probably the best technique for getting a deep sharp color fill. For those without sanding equipment, you can hand sand the color off with a hard sanding block. It will take time and you can start at 120 grit since it won't remove material as quickly as a machine. For quick and dirty projects, I use the clear spray before lasering then apply shoe polish over the engraved area. Rubbing alcohol on a paper towel will take the polish and engraving soot off the clear, leaving it in the engraving. The problem with this technique is that the polish can bleed into the grain at the edge of the engraving.

@yusukeart4170 3 года назад

Super cool technique. I'd never seen seal, then paint, then sand, then seal again. Really nice turnout!

@nazarethwoodshop Год назад

Never seen it done this way. I’ve always put a coat or two of gloss polyurethane spray down and did carving, then used a contrasting stain to work in and wiped off. Now that I have an engraver I’ll try your method. Thanks!

@LifeWithRoger Год назад

No worries. There are lots of different techniques out there. This is just one of em. Hope it helps

@AS-bv2dl 3 года назад

could you do one for say an engraving on metal that has been engraved and base painted, with the relief/engraving being painted white on a black background? Would you use non-alchol resistant paint for the engraved areas and wipe away with a cotton alcohol wope?

@antariuswolfonso8035 3 года назад

@RuffKutmedia 3 года назад

I've tried the masking technique but was not able to get a consistent result due to the masking tape lifting after lasering. I like your approach better and will give it a try for sure, thanks for sharing!

@johnkemas7344 Год назад

I've used 3M Blue painters tape and applied before lasering but you must make sure to cover the all the joints between the tape strips thoroughly before painting. I've also trying spraying the wood with a light coat of laquer before engraving the wood too. Any of these three methods will work but but each has it's pros and cons. With real heavy grained woods like Oak all bets are off!! The paint will run into the grain even if sealed with laquer because of the the depth of the grain. I've never found a satisfactory way to do Oak or similar deep grained woods

@grootjnr 3 года назад

@gjjohnston 3 года назад

Great video - thx for sharing. Have you ever tried doing this with end grain - I'm thinking about trying this with a end grain cutting board?

@LifeWithRoger 3 года назад

I haven't, but it'll be fine as long as you seal the heck outta the ends to prevent bleed.

Curious as to why you use the heavy body acrylic paint. I'm a beginner and have been using regular (non heavy body) acrylic paint. What advantages do you find in using the heavy body paint?

It's thicker and fills better.

@jeffrudolph1802 3 года назад

Great technique, just curious why not put the lacquer on before engraving, so the the acrylic will adhere directly to the wood within the text?

@LifeWithRoger 3 года назад

Lacquer is a finishing step. Putting it on early means you would still have to seal after the engraving or risk paint bleed in the grain.

@mmiller9822 3 года назад

Thanks Roger. I want to laser engrave some text on a white pine Adirondack chair. Can this method be used if a want paint the letters as you've done, but then stain/seal the wood slat? After applying the sealer to the wood and then sanding it, would 'that' slat accept the stain differently than the other planks of wood which haven't undergone this process. I obviously know nothing about woodworking. ;-0 Thanks!

@LifeWithRoger 3 года назад

Can be done easily enough. 1. Engrave the text, 2. Seal it 3-4 times (Pine is porous and needs to be sealed REALLY well to prevent bleeding) 3. Paint fill 4. Sand the top layers down to bare wood and clean the text (I use blown air). 5. Stain to color preference (being mindful not to let the stain dry until you've gotten the desired coloring AFTER cleaning) and then after the stain cures fully, apply your finish. Easy Peasy

@Greatgadgetsgear 10 месяцев назад

Great but that won’t work on day a black background with white in design as you’ll sand off the black. So how do you do it in that situation?

@LifeWithRoger 10 месяцев назад

I'm not sure I understand. But this is for filling an engraving. You fill, then sand. If you want to paint a second color you'll need to practice dry brushing techniques.

@ShoHashi 2 года назад

Will this technique work if you have already stained your piece but not applied any finish?

@LifeWithRoger 2 года назад

You'll have to sand it back down after filling and stain again before finishing

@pauljosephkennedyjr8306 2 года назад

One question I have is what if I want the wood stained prior so I could use different color paint? The video states stain after everything, I wonder if I stain, laser cut, lacquer/protective coat x2, paint, and then sand will my original stain be affected? I’ll have to check and try it but any helpful commend are welcomed. Thanks!

@LifeWithRoger 2 года назад

Yes the original stain will be partially sanded off.

Hey there, I see you're still replying, thank you. Hopefully I can get some help. I have a board that I want to stain/paint blue. I want the engraved words/lines gold. How do I paint the backer blue? Do I paint then color the engraving gold. Do I color the engraving gold and then paint/stain blue? How do I not ruin my gold? The videos I have seen all finish to a natural wood so I don't know how to color the wood. Thank you again.

Paint the board blue, then apply masking tape to the whole face, then engrave, carefully paint the engraving, remove tape, apply finish.

to seal the wood and prevent paint from seeping into the grain.

@BrianQ823 8 месяцев назад

Couldn't you just cover the complete board with the clear and seal it really good. Put your paint on and before it dries wipe off the excess leaving paint in the deep engraved areas?

@LifeWithRoger 8 месяцев назад

It won't be as clean unless you fully seal all the grain before you engrave. Even then it may run
