Recently I have used a laser engraver but that tends to limit the colours. You need light coloured lettering on a dark coloured background. I paint the panel white to start with and then followed by black. The black absorbs the laser light and burns off, but the white reflects the light and stays intact.
Yes irritating indeed that I didn't spot it before the point I ran out of patience to replace it, as it is spelt correctly below. Was very happy until you also spotted it.
After you have lasered on the black paint lettering, is the white paint below untouched? I suppose you have to get the laser setting just right.
