    Co2 laser to etch the paint off stainles steel

    As title reaally,

    will my 80w chinese co2 laser remove a painted surface to expose the stainless steel without damaging the laser at all, i know we can mark stainless with cermark or suchlike, but someone has asked if i can mark the painted surface - so like a reverse image of what cermark will do.

    thanks

    Yes it could , painted surface is non-metal

    and it will not damage the laser at all as it will ultimately be lasering onto the surface of the stainless too and bouncing straight back
