After wiping off the excess color from outside the etching border, use a heat gun to burn the color into the engraving. Repeat the process if color is not bright enough.
Thank you so much for this . I have been trying to figure out how to make sure the color stays after a few washes
@littlemsblondie1 did the color stay after washing ?
I love, love, love the way you teach! You're amazing. Thank you!
Thank you, Angie! Videos like this are very helpful.
I use the rub n buff, but I leave the stencil on, let dry and then remove the stencil
Yea I was doing this AFTER the etching was done. Like WAY after!
Thanks for showing options for this technique.
My pleasure 😊
Thank you Angie for this tutorial. It is very helpful and you have done the hard work for us.
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for sharing this! I’ve always wanted to see options for tinting etchings!!
Happy to help!
Oh my gosh perfect timing for this tutorial- I am making etched wine classes for a friend (she wants her golden retriever dog etched) and using the gold rub and buff will make the etched dog pop of the wine glass. Thanks you for doing the hard work and testing these products for us.
Oh yay! I hope it works perfectly!
Thank you
You're welcome!
Rub n buff is so useful
It really is!
Thx for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Good evening Angie Holden from New South Wales Australia 🇦🇺
Welcome!
Thank you so much for this! I know you said these are not good safe…but I want to use something for a wine glass to actually use. What do you recommend?
I have not found a food safe option.
Angie, if you leave the stencil on, then use an oil based paint pen, it works much better. Then you can bake the glass to make it last longer.
What temp and time would you suggest for baking?
I etched these way before I filmed this so it wouldn't have worked in this case but good to know!
Would the glass not shatter?
Thanks for a great tutorial. Is there a period of time for the rub n buff?
The video is pretty much unedited so I didn't leave it on long. I would allow it to cure like 72 hours before washing. Just to be safe!
Thoughts on sealing the alcohol ink/rub-n-buff to make it last longer?
I didn't really see anything that I liked?
Hi Angie! Hoping you may have some expertise that could help me. If I have some windows on a cabinet that were etched with a design I no longer want, could I apply Armour etch over the design, and end up with just an "etched glass" window? Thank you so much for any guidance you may have!!
I am not sure actually. It may look different in the places where it was already etched.
Thanks for the tutorial! Can a h colored plain edge Cher glass be put in the dishwasher?
Etched glass can be put in the dishwasher. I do not recommend dishwashing if you add color.
Where do you acquire your glass? I love the style you have etched here.
I think these were from the dollar store to be honest.
Hi Angie, when using the alcohol ink should it be baked in the oven to set it or not? Thank you in advance for your response. ❤
I did not bake it.
I really like rub and buf.f8nring more ways use alcohol inks .would it help 8f u blotted area with alcohol inks instead of it running down design? Thanks another great fideo
It might? I tried a few things and got about the same result.
Those very first bottles vinegar I think was on it what are those called and where do you get those at? Thanks I may have another question. I got a continue watching.
They are from Michaels. You can see more here: czcams.com/video/CuQg0N5GSbU/video.html
Have you experimented using a silver or black R&B then apply the alcohol ink after it cures?
Oh I have not thought of that!
Hello..can you help me please I have maker3 and knife blade how i cut foam!! It always shows in my laptop to use deep cut blade but I don’t have it
You would have to trick the machine but I would use caution. The knife blade can cut through your mat and damage your machine.
Could you please show how to make a stencil.
Try this link: czcams.com/video/CuQg0N5GSbU/video.html
Whenever I did this I left the stencil on and that prevents it from getting on where I don't want it
I always worry I didn't get all of the etching cream off!
How did you etch the beer can?

So ,Rub and Buff is not washable? As in a drinking glass?
I would hand wash as it will wear off.
Do you cure the glass after adding color?
I did not.
Does anyone know if rubn buff is permenate ...i used it once and it washed off with soap and hot water 😢
Rub n Buff is wax based....HOT water is the problem
Will the color lasts longer?
I didn't find any that I thought would last a lifetime but some will last for a long time!
@@AngieHolden ♥️♥️♥️♥️
Did you try food coloring?
I did not.
Can anything be used as a sealer?
I am not a fan of sealer on clear glass.
@@AngieHolden Thanks. I couldn't think of anything, but if it existed, you'd known.
