I have tried to use my D1 Pro with the Stainless sheet that came with the sample kit and I will not mark or engrave on it no matter the speed I set. I have also tried stainless dog tags with the same result. I have had to purchase the Brilliant coating to be able to mark on the stainless items. I have seen the videos on your site of engraving on stainless without a coating and I want to know how that is being done.
Have more questions?

Hi John,
I don't know if anyone got back to you on this and I'm not sure if this reply will be helpful.
I'm a new user of the D1 pro and I downloaded a file that runs a speed/power test from the xTool facebook group.
My first attempt (toady 8 Jan) worked no problem on the large shiny stainless steel mat that I use to protect my workbench.
The photo attached was my second attempt using the program on brushed stainless steel.
I didn't use any coatings, all I can suggest is to make sure that you use the focusing arm.
If you don't use facebook then try the settings shown in the xTool D1 Pro Engraving & Cutting Parameters for Reference link follows
