If you're still interested in laser marking still I just found this while trying to look up Thermark prices. Apparently you can get similar and durable results with a $10 can of moly dry lube. :psyduck:

Also awesome project! With all the space left over you could even cram a small server or some poo poo in there to stream music from your computer.

I think I'd dye that cloth, white cloth will attract everything that can make it look dirty.

If you pull it off and dye it a clothes iron will smooth it out real nice, otherwise if you've got a clothes steamer like what folks use when traveling that will work too. Assuming whatever the frame is won't mind the moisture of course.
