For Stainless steel, there is very little buildup of material on the back of the cut (not so much as plasma cutting), but you can remove it very easy.
You have to find the right parameters, cutting speed, gas pressure and laser power.
To cut stainless steel with clean edges, you have to use Nitrogen as assist gas, but I don't know if G-100 is so powerful for this. I never try to cut metal with Nitrogen. If you will try this, I'm curious for the results.
