I've been watching a few of your tutorials and they are really helpful. Thanks for sharing these tips. I love to etch and the biggest problem I have had is some biting through and the heavy texture in the etched part that I am not personally fond of. I can't tell you how many pieces I have ruined because I sanded off the depth trying to get a good finish. Fortunately I have been learning using brass. I'm also adding citric acid for the Edinburgh etch. Do you have any tips about this? Thanks again :)
Thanks Roberta!
Thanks
Roberta how long does the ferric nitrate last? Will you be able to tell when it is no longer good? Thanks!!
