have you tried a 1064nm fibre marking laser?
I've got one for sale if you're interested

it is designed to mark all metals, the size on a milling cutter for example. the slower you run it the deeper it engraved but does not cuts as its 10 watts. amazing job on brass with a 40µm cut
Al sorts of suggestions here. Well, maybe try the old-school mechanical engraving if you can find a spot flat enough. Places that make trophies and plaques should have a mechanical engraver.
I doubt there's enough depth with laser-engraving to backfill the "engraved" area with a light-colored paint (plus this is a PITA, and a lot of labor).
I would not even consider additional chemical sort of processing (resits, etching, etc) to facilitate a logo; that would just drive up the cost on your type of product. I had a business for a long time where we did military science projects making 3-dimensional circuits on all sorts of substrates. We used an electrophoretic (platable) photoresist applied onto the 3-D substrate, along with a special 3-d lithography tool, developing etching etc. Lots of steps and chemicals.
if you have a sample I'd be happy to try at different setting
I have two of these laser so will be keeping one for home use and small runs
