Do you need to follow steps to engrave white tile painted black?

Thank you all for the replies.
I buy my tiles from Lowes and the process is as follows.

  1. Give each tile a wipe with a paper towel whetted with Acetone.
    (you would be surprised what can come off of them)
    2( Paint with the white primer
  2. Burn the tile
  3. Wash with Acetone to get all of the paint off.
    This is the results.
    The Image will not come off by any means.

I tried using Gimp and Imagr,
I simply don’t get the results that others have.
I strictly use LightBurn for all of my work.

But again, It is my understanding that its the titanium dioxide in the white paint that gets burned into the tiles.

Now I must give credit where credit is due.
I learned this process from Nicky Norton.
