- When etching generates heat and fumes. Therefore, ventilate the room where you work.
Etch 30 seconds to 1 minute after the aluminum plate put into cold water to cool, tooth brush gently clean the etched surface and give another etch. Repeat this process until etched surface will have the desired depth.
Engraved is doing ,but no deep by ferric chloride , ans. & slove my problems pls sir ,
One word ................ Brilliant!!
.. one of the best time lapse vids i hv come across & of coz the OMG a fantastic etching work ..
could hv added sub for info of the processes .. neway, tQ.
nice job
Nice From INDONESIA
Nice video
Can you tell me ,can i do the same etching with electricity and salt water on aluminum like yours ???
And can you tell me how many times I can use the same ferric chloride???
Thank you
Sound of fast forwarding is terrible. I recommend cutting the audio out or do some explanation of what you’re doing and the products you use. This is not really a tutorial as much it is you showing off what you can do. Nice job though on the sign.
I think it's kind of cool. Perhaps you could just mute it.
@@chrinamint wish I could do the same for you… alas it’s the internet and stupidity is expected.
@@PaulHaggar LOL!
The title doesn't say it's a tutorial although that's what I was looking for. Still found this helpful although it would be useful to have details of the chemicals involved.
@@andrewgray9663 I agree, would have been nice to get a description of materials used. Cheers
Please say what is name of polishing device and company. Thax.
good job brother 👍🌹
Awesome video, thank you!!!
One question I have as I'm trying to figure out the best way to do a project similar to yours is what materials are you using to create the transfer? Also it looks like your using simple packing tape on the back to prevent etching?
To transfer the image I use "transfer foil for vinyl cut graphics" But I'm not sure if this is the exact translation. I have a foil from graphic studio where I let cut out the stickers.
For covering the back side you can use any tape. It is there purely to seal the surface is not etched.
So you are yanking the aluminum plate out of the ferric chloride bath every minute because it gets hot from the reaction. You are cooling the thing in cold water and scrubbing the left over gunk with a toothbrush, then repeating the process. I was wondering if this method is suitable for delicate intaglio etching on aluminum that is much thinner. Guess I will see. My only worry is the asphaltum resist I am using might fail if temp is an issue. Wondering if some good old enamel lacquer might do the trick instead.
Nice work!!!!!
Hydrochloric acid (Muriatic Acid) will also etch aluminum. You just have to thoroughly neutralize it afterward.
wow, great work, bruh...thank u for sharing 😃👌
Great Work.
Great video, what is the black stuff you used?
Hola estás grabando una placa de aluminio??? Cuánto tiempo de inmersión en cloruro férrico???muchas gracias muy buen trabajo!!!!
what is that stencil you are using? how did you get it made? It sticks to metals really well or what? I am trying to do that same thing and the only solution i came up with is to get some vinyl and a vinyl cutter...
Would you be able to use a 3d print as a resist in order to save material? Or maybe wood. Not sure if it will eat through it. Trying to etch .25 inch stainless steel using the salt water electro etching method. Thanks.
Very cool!
Nice
Very nice. Thanks
Your job is awesome !!! :O
Thanks for the video x)
Its really great !!! :D
What kind of paper do you use? :o
Very Cool
Hi sir ferric chloride can eatinching Steel name plate
hlo dear your video is so nice. but i have 1 question with you and my question is Can we reuse ferric chloride? if we can so how many time we can use? please help me dear i want to start this work
I hope you rply me as soon as possible
thnks dear
Hi . This is not what we can say in general. When etching smaller items, chloride can be used several times. When etching bigger items, life is shortened.
Awesome
Could you suggest me a video of making good and effective ferric chloride because I think my ferric chloride is not working well because it's not giving texture every where and not giving same texture as your gives .... kindly suggest me good video for making ferric chloride ...
If I don't have ferric chloride, can I use HCL acid with H202?
Hi..what are the components of the chemical..tnx
Parada! Uplne cumim, jak se v domacich podminkach da vyrobit profesionalne vypadajici cedule! Vyborna prace! Dotaz: pokud by cedule byla venku, mas nejake doporuceni pro vrchni bezbarvy lak? Aby se na povrchu nedelala takova ta skareda šedá vrstvicka oxidu. Diky.
Ahoj . Dělal jsem takhle jmenovky na domovní zvonek . Použil jsem nato barvy motip . A barvy vpohodě drží .
Ferric chloride works faster if its heated up the the microwave for 20 seconds or so. Also use metal polish afterwards on the sanded aluminium, make it shine like a mirror.
If i use hot water its same?
Which grade aluminium sheet is used... can use this metal nameboard for outside, all whether...? Pls help
Hi . I made it out of duralumin. I don't know the alloy designation, I found it in the scrap. This procedure will work with any aluminum alloy. Yes the sign can be used outdoors. Similarly, I made name badges for the doorbell.
what was the music in the background at the end?
That's fucking awesome
Was that a vinyl or laser copy transfer.
vinyl transfer
Hi, nice work. Quite helpful. Tell me about stencil. Can it be made from vinyl sheets or is it some other material.
Hi . I'm sorry I'm writing late. Yes, you can use vinyl. The template was made by an advertising agency for me. It's called "Cut Graphics".
What's the chemical that you are using
What is the liquid used in timer 5:05?
Great work by the way
Ahmed Atef It’s called dihydrogen monoxide.
kkkk.... I can't believe I google it...
Yes, It is known as H2O
Kindly tell me what kind of Black Ink. P.P or P.V.C.
Hello Matěj at the end you paint with spray and remove the ink using which product, grateful.
To remove spray paint using water sandpaper, grit 280. Then another 500 grit for super-smooth finish.
Dope
After spray painting... you poured something on from a can ? then sanded with wet n dry. What did you put onto the paint?
That's pure water. I used sandpaper for underwater grinding.
Нi man.Can i ask how to remove wasting material/thrash/rust from plate?
Hi, I use an old toothbrush.
So I tried this today with a small 32mm diameter aluminium disc that was 2mm thick. I cleaned it with acetone first then sat it in ferric chloride but it didn't seem to bubble like that and doesn't seem to have done much. What have I done wrong.
Hi . Did you use pure aluminum or anodized? If the surface of the aluminum is anodised it is not possible to etching.
Matěj Novák I thought it was just pure aluminium but maybe it did have a coating of some kind on it. I never sanded over it first as I thought it was just clean aluminium. Maybe next time I will try that first. It has etched it a little bit but it took all day and didn't look close to the effect you got with yours. My ferric chloride says 40% is that strong enough.
Yes it is possible that there was some coating on aluminum. The etching of pure aluminum takes place quite quickly. The chloride concentration you use is good. Try clean aluminum and it will work.
great video about a dot, that is supposed to be there but it is not and then magically appears_the MAGIC DOT

Hi what stencil did you use. .or what specific name for that transfer paper
Hello . At the local graphic studio I made a template. Transfer film was included. These are common things.
Was this piece of aluminum anodized? Also would ferric chloride affect the results if I used a vinyl stencil? I am wanting to do the chrome strips on the side of my truck but im not sure if it will work and Its hard to find intact aluminum pieces for a 73 shortbed f100
Sorry i'm late. aluminum must be clean. If aluminum is anodized it will not work. The chloride template does not affect the template.
However, care should be taken for temperature and thin or sharp shapes. They tend to peel off.
Greetings this aluminum is stainless steel?
This is a sheet of aluminum.
I tried to corrode aluminum and it boiled
Ok, but how do you get to part 1?
First part ? This is all. I put the sticker into an advertising agency. It's a vinyl sticker that makes car stickers.
you rock Matej! can you help me with some details: how long did you leave it in ferric chloride?, why did you rinse it several times?, what paint did you use? and what solution did you use for cleaning the paint from the untouched surfaces?
Thanks pleased me your interest. I let it etch 30-60 seconds. Then it rinse with clean water. Rinse with it due cooling because heat is generated during etching. And on the surface of iron settles, it will remove tooth brush so that the etched surface was not bumps. I am using plain color spray paint. To remove color using water sandpaper, grit 280.
@ how long do you wait for paint to dry before sanding down with water?

Zdravím, kde se dají nechat vyrobit ty "vyřezané" samolepky. Případně na koho by se měl obrátit. Děkuji
Ahoj . Měli by to umět asi v každý reklamní agentuře . Dělají se s tím reklamní polepy na auta . Jmenuje se to řezaná grafika .
does the etching time affect the etching depth
Yes
Nice work, amazing combination of arts and science. Can electric circuits be prepared by etching process too??
Yes, it is possible. But better results are achieved using a photosensitive lacquer. watch this video czcams.com/video/9PXHXAArKaw/video.html
Good day sir ,what kind of sticker you use ?
It is not a special sticker. It could be something like that .https: //www.alibaba.com/product-detail/3m-vinyl-sticker-color-die-cut_60332848970.html
Mantap gan luar biasa
Hi, I tried on aluminum but it took almost 10 min for 0.30mm dip etching.
What should be concentration of FECL3?
What’s etching process for Stainless Steel of different grades?
Hello . 0.3 mm in 10 minutes is normal.
I do not know the concentration of ferric chloride, I buy the finished mixed solution.
For etching stainless steel try Electrolysis. Batteries and salt water. But I do not know if it will work I did not try it.
Thanks sir
@@a4ajit I etch stainless steel all the time with ferric chloride. Same process this guy used. I cut a stencil and put the ferric chloride on there anywhere from 10 to 15 minutes. Then I put baking soda on it to stop the reaction and then wash it with water. I don't paint mine after though.
What is ferric chloride used for in the house hold?
Occasionally etching printed circuit boards. Ferric chloride that can not be used for copper etching is used for etching aluminum.
I'm sorry I probably wrote it vaguely. I use the same iron chloride for both copper and aluminum. Ferric chloride is capable of etching a certain amount of copper, and then copper is incapable of etching. This (used) ferric chloride is then used for etching aluminum.
nice work video too fast
should i heat the chloride ? because it changed the color only , what can i do ???
No . Do not heat ferric chloride. Etching would take place very quickly. Chloride should have room temperature. The etching heats itself
yes i'am done thank you dude but i waiting more videos
Soon, there will be a new video. :)
ferric chloride? did you dip it in water and baking soda to stop the process before you re-etch?
To cool down and stop etching. Soak the aluminum plate only into clean water . I do not use baking powder.

great work,is this plate can used for printing?
Hello . Do you mean to use it as a printing master? Maybe yes, but I have not tried it. Etched surfaces are deep cca.0,15mm.
Tanx a lot for information.Just one more question,how long time i need for this deep?
Time etching can not say exactly. Heat is created during etching. Larger etched surface creates more heat. And the warmed etching bath. How bath has higher temperature by the aluminum etches faster.
Etch 30 seconds to 1 minute after the aluminum plate put into cold water to cool, tooth brush gently clean the etched surface and give another etch. Repeat this process until etched surface will have the desired depth.
I repeated this about 6 times me to get to the depth of 0.15 mm.
Many tanx for information and help.I will write it soon.
Tanx again.You are great.
you're welcome
I want traning
Can you post link where you buy your Ferric chloride??
And wht is the best deal?
Hello . Ferric chloride I buy in a local store. Here is the link but I do not know if it will help you. www.gme.cz/leptaci-roztok-1000ml
Do you have fb,i have some questions,thank you
I only have a private Facebook. Please write your questions here. Thanks
How thick is your alumin sheet,and how many times you can use the same ferric chloride solution???
The minimum thickness of the aluminum plate is about 1 cm. I used a 2mm thick plate. I can not say how many times the same solution can be used. It always depends on how large the surface you are etching. Logo JD what is in the video could be etched about 5 times.
i want etching on round shape aluminum.deep 1mm
so please give me any process for this work
On the video to see it all. What do you not understand ?
This is a Charley Chaplin Video, with a Keystone Corp.
no help at all. what materials did you use, how long did you do each step for... etc
check out the video comments. everything is written there
Hlo sir
The background sound is infuriatingly obnoxious.. Couldn’t watch more than 30 seconds sorry.. I’m sure it was good, but F that noise ✌️
Despite the demonstration, it wasn't clear just what the steps are.
Not good like yours.
Aluminum must not be immersed in ferric chloride for too long. Otherwise, it will overheat and bath starts to foam. Aluminum immerse in chloride for a maximum of 30s. Then rinse in cold water and immerse again in chloride. Repeat it until the pattern is etched deep enough.
t was then that happened because I'm looking for a way to make a deep solder in the metal, I got the copper and the brass but I wanted something even deeper, I saw some techniques with salt and vinegar using 12v batter and pile too, thank you.
Etched with salt, vinegar and 12V battery I did not try. I can not help you with that.
I'll put a lemon juice conentrado with the salt in the battery because the salt corrodes too and I'll come back to tell you the result, thank you
George Robartes: What fish and chips? I do not understand....

WRONG ETCHANT SOLUTION....
Maybe yes but it works.
Niceee
next time use some acetone to remove the sticker
just put it in a layer of aceton and the sticker will desolve from the alu plate
