Hi Buzz,
I think you will just have to try it and see with the engraving points.
I have had some very good quality points from China (and also some rubbish) and it perhaps depends on the micro-grain of the carbide used in the manufacture - the trouble is you can't tell just by looking and you have to rely on the manufacturer's / vendors word regarding the quality.
As for the filling I use Rub'n'Buff, it is a US product and commonly available via ebay.
Tweakie.
CNC is only limited by our imagination.
