Subject: [Shop-talk] Dye-ing stainless steel

My wife asked for a monogrammed Yeti cup--you know, those stainless =
steel cups that keep ice cool forever.=20

Got the cup, had it monogrammed. I am a hero.

Monogram is so 'shallow' into the stainless that it's almost impossible =
to see. You can catch your fingernail on it, but just barely.

I was going to have at it with a Sharpie, then wipe off the excess, but =
I don't know if that'll do it--if it wipes off the surrounding metal, =
why won't it wipe off the engraved part, too? I doubt the cut is deep =
enough to hold paint, but I might try that.

Thought you guys might have advice on how to get this to stand out.

Thanks in advance.

Scott
