View Full Version : Dumb CerMark question

Is there any length of time from applying CerMark to the object to lasering before it needs to be re-applied. I know I have to wait 15 - 20 minutes before lasering, but can I apply on Friday and lets say wait until Monday to put under the laser?

It'll laser just fine, but keep in mind that on some substrates (from my experience) will stain slightly if left coated for an extended period of time.

I was a bit worried about that being a possibility. I have some upcoming projects which are mostly stainless steel, but have a few chrome and nickle plated objects as well.

Mike , pre-spraying shouldn't be a problem on the stainless. I often spray a week or so ahead. Just be careful on the chrome and nickle parts as they may stain, I have never had the staining problem on any job, but I heard it does happen.

Greg,
Thanks, I have some scrap pieces that I think I will go ahead and try just to see..
