Hey all!
I've recently been using Etch-all on my own small glass enameled pieces to mattify the surface, but I'm working with an artist on creating large-scale (around 45" wide) etched mirrors, and I wanted some advice.
1. The resist will be a really intricate design made from laser-cut vinyl
2. Etch-all and Armor-Etch both come in really small serving-sized bottles -- is there a bulk version or cheaper/industrial alternative?
3. Would you suggest Armor-Etch (the paste) or Etch-all (very liquidy liquid) for such a process?
Thanks guys! I have some ideas on what kinds of acids I might obtain, but I thought you guys might know better :)
