I did a search in the old forum and some people have had there toys engraved at trophy shops, The engraving as I have seen is not all that deep or look like it was stamped. So how well did the engraving hold up to being blasted and parkarized?

I would hold the blasting nozzle about a foot away (depends on your blaster) and just hit it enough to discolor the metal.

I should have asked this earlier but does anyone have pics to share to show how well it shows up after refinishing?

The only engraving with a reputation for being easy to blast off is the ORF stuff. I know that plates from Brass Cartridge, daves100 and T&S have very deep engraving, and the custom stuff by Steve at Tom Sawyer Mfg is nice and deep. I'd post a pic of one of mine, but I never seem to get my own guns parked. Lots have been done in my tanks, though!

While not parkerized, this engraving has been blasted with Aluminum Oxide and the lettering is still crisp.

I haven't started to offer these yet, but will shortly. Engraving is .010" deep.

I have seen the work and plates by those that have been posted here for awhile. But I would like to see the finished engraving of those who had a trophy shop mark there creation, As to how well it stood up to being blasted and parked.

Of all the posts on this subject in the old forum no one here went this route and have anything to say about how well it has held up?
