They sell etching cream at most craft stores like Michaels or online. You can use it with decals/stickers the same as you did here. You brush it on, then after set time, wipe off. The acid in the cream permanently "etches" the glass. Much safer for items that need to be food safe.

I actually did something similar for a Christmas gift. Except I used glassware and this stuff etching cream. Didn't come out too terribly, just took a little patience.

It looks really good and professional if you do it correctly.

I use armour etch, and it works great:

I believe you cut out the design, and weed the negative space. The opposite that you would do if you were applying the vinyl . Then the apply a chemical paste (intended for this purpose) so it covers the negative space. After some time, you wipe it clean, and remove the vinyl outline.

That was a rough, non technical explanation.

My brew buddy and I bought some Armour Etch and a six pack of cheapo pint glasses from Target and made some custom pint glasses for ourselves. I bet you could do the same thing with a plain growler from your local beer supply store.

You can use masking tape, electrical tape, detailing tape, or acrylic paint and an X-acto knife to make a negative mask on the glass, use a paint brush to apply the etching paste over the mask. The longer you leave it the more pronounced the etching is, you can get a decent result in as little as 5 minutes, but I'd leave it on longer.

Just know that if you have large areas of etching, it might look not so great, so I suggest you swirl it around every couple of minutes to make it look more uniform.

I would use something like this, personally. Not quite engraving but close.

Glass or plastic carboy?

If you're feeling artsy or you have a stencil, try your hand at making them yourself. I started with a few "tester" glasses until I got comfortable then I made some custom snifters for my tasting group.

PS: YouTube is your friend on this project.

Etching is the only way to mark tempered glass without shattering it. The safest way would be with a custom vinyl stencil (which I can make for you) and some of this stuff. Apply your stencil, brush it on and leave it, wash it off, peel the stencil and done.

The other option is the same stencil and a sandblaster with low pressure, good lighting and patience.

The etching cream I used was this (it comes in other sizes, and it can also be used on glassware/that is its primary purpose), and here is the link to the slate tiles (only $3 home shipping in the U.S. if it's not available at your local store!)

It's either mechanical, like sandblasting, or chemical.

  1. You are a highly sympathetic individual and you should be celebrated. You seem to see the silver lining in things and are not afraid to point them out to others.

  2. In a world as busy as ours is, if you don't stop and notice the fowers, who will? And if no one notices, what was the point of the flowers? I know, I just blew your mind :) lol

    3)I like to find new craft ideas when I am bored at work. Plan out gifts to make, things like that. Currently I'm compiling my christmas list so I don't have to rush it in December. Things did not turn out as well as I wanted last year and it won't happen again :) Pintrest is cool for this. I also help aliviate boredom with TinyChat and IRC. The people in here are great for that :)

  3. Glass etching cream... ya know, so I can start some of those projects :)

in an only kinda related message: You can etch these yourself if you have the time for it, using something like this. I did it on some glasses for my dads birthday because custom ones were too expensive.

u/Terrik27 · 1 pointr/DIY

Looks like a good walkthrough! Good cheap suggestions.

If you're doing plexiglass, you're going to have to use letter stickers to stay cheap. However, if you use glass, you can use glass etching cream and an overhead transparency stencil to etch letters.

Of course, you'd be certain it'd never break if you used plexiglass, but the etched glass would look way better. . .

I would also suggest using 'glazing tips' (just google 'em) instead of hot glue if you end up using real glass, but TheMadHatter made a good list of suggestions!

u/bak1984 · 1 pointr/EliteDangerous

You can also buy Etching Cream instead of sand blasting. It chemically etches the glass, but not as resilient as sand blasting.

not all that difficult with etching cream. May be difficult to do cleanly.
