    Using the Argentium laser works great on these thicker shanks.
    280-300 volts, 4.0 ms, beam  AT 12 to add wire. I am not a fan of the
    sharpie, but if I absolutely need to use, blue is my preference.
    Scuffing the surface with sanding disc or emery paper works best for
    me. Also, keep an eye on the seam, if the metal looks spongy, lower
    your setting. 

Hope this helps.
