Zippo Lighter Shells

One more question for tonight! Is a Zippo lighter shell safe to engrave? Thank you!

Plane brass or chrome will need a treatment for it to mark and you will have to experiment with painted.

Thanks for your reply! Can you recommend a treatment for a plain old silver looking shell? I’m not sure what the material is 100%. It’s an heirloom tho, so I’d hate to wreck it.

Your 40W co2 laser can’t touch the actual metal, so worst case you have some cleaning to do.,
