A method and system for creating readily identifiable discrete markings on an application surface of an object. The system comprises a stencil having a cutout openings forming a discrete identifier, and a marking reagent comprising an organic solvent, isopropyl alcohol, and a metal marking component. After applying the stencil to an application surface, the marking reagent is applied to the application surface via the cutout openings. The marking reagent may then etch the discrete identifier as well portions on an interior portion of the application surface. In some applications, the system may be applied to a surface having dirt and grease. In addition, marking reagent may embed a cured portion of the marking reagent within the well portions.
