Hello, Peroni
1: Mark with the iron: 1 or 2 hours. Paint, 3 hours. Etching: depends. You must see how the etching is going, and then lay the piece more or less time. The more time consuming is enlaying.
2: The silver solder paste includes flux. Previously you must clean very well the piece with bicarbonate to keep off the particles of chlorure.
To make the "inlaying", you need a torch with a little flame but a very high temperature, in order to make a very localized heat point. In other case, if the solder could goes irregular. When the inlay is finished, you need a lot of sanding, polishing and buffing to obtains a nice result. And probably, you need to repeat the procedure at some localized points...It's probably a coarse method, but reall inlay it's very hard to me.
Happy to be helpfull...
