-** Shiny surfaces** such as backs of iPods: use the [[http://​www.laserbits.com/​main.php3?​SELECT=CerMark+Metal&​CLASS=Laser+Supplies|Cermark laser etching spray]] - we get ours from [[http://​www.laserbits.com/​|Laserbits]] ($64). Spray the back of the iPod, wait 15-20 minutes then etch as usual. The power should be 100% and the speed should be the wattage of your laser, for us the speed is 35 since we have a 35W laser. +

-After the etch you just rub it off with a damp paper towel.  +
