Whether you are enhancing glass for yourself, a gift, or from a thrifting haul take the time to test the glass. I have learned my lesson the hard way so I am sharing this etching tip with you. Before proceeding with a glass etching project, take the time to test your glass. You can test multiple pieces all at once. Doing so will save you so much time, money, and effort. The process is simple and in the end, you will be glad you did so.
My go to etching cream is etchall. It has no smell and it is reusable.
