Using a laser-etching machine from Vytek, Lazer Graffix is able to create a broad range of etchings for items such as murals, fireplace surrounds, decorations for homes, dedication plaques and kitchen backsplashes. The materials used include granite, marble and glass. “The most popular products we produce are etchings on 6- x 6-inch pieces of granite and marble,†said Ludwig. “We do a lot for anniversaries and wedding photos on one single tile. Our customers like this because the etching is forever.
“Recently, I just finished my first 4- x 5-foot wall mural [etching] with paint as well as a fireplace surround,†Ludwig continued. “The mural is the 'Luncheon of the Boating Party' by Renoir. It is on display at the mall, and a lot of people stop to admire it.â€
