Engraving filler on G10

[mikec]

Is there something that you all could recommend that I could fill an engraving or carving that was done in say G10 that could make it stand out. Say I engraved a name on red G10, is there something white I could fill it with to make it stand out. I would crenge, but I guees I could hit it with some spray paint then sand it back down to expose the red again???

Thanks

There is a product called Inlace that might help you. It is a polyesther resin, available in most basic colors, that you mix like epoxy and them trowel it into your inlay. When it sets up, sand it down and polish like you would the G-10. Grizzly sells it, and I think Sheffield's has it too....

Mike, I've used an item called Bonanza Gold for just such a job.
It comes in a kit that includes the cleaner, the laquer, and the gold pigment. You just clean the area. then put a little of the laquer on it and then some of the pigment and rub it in with a lint free cloth, t-shirt material works good. Then, before it dries, you wipe the excess away, just leaving the color in the engraving.
Looks real sharp!
It also comes in silver.
I know Jantz Supply sells it and it wouldn't suprise me if all the knife supply outfits carry it.
I've used it on steel and it looked great.
It should look fantastic on red or black g10.
It's not very much either, less than $10 a kit unless it's gone up.
Take care!!
Michael

I've looked them both up un the internet and they sound like what I will try. I may go with the Inlace, sounds like more options including metals.

Thanks a bunch,
Mike
