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.
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.
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.
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
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 tried the rub n buff on laser engraved glasses I made. I got a very light hint of black from the rub n buff but it seems like it wiped off the engraved part. Am I missing a step? Maybe my engraving is not deep enough?
I have asked this same question on a couple of videos without getting a full response, so I am hopeful to get one this time. Your procedure looks very quick and easy, have followed instructions (numerous times) but the paint on etch either comes off or very spotty. My last attempt was using acrylic paint specifically for glassware, left on for a whole night, washed gently and still ended up with the same results. The etching cream was left on for 30 minutes which came out awesome but this coloring process has been discouraging. Any tips?
For paint, you may need to bake the glass to make it more permanent. I actually noted in this video how I was discouraged by the methods a bt and recommended gently hand washing.
@@AngieHolden yes. I have tried that but for some reason it lifts off. I have kept the vinyl on, only to find out that some paint lifts off with paint. I will take the blame with that due to possibly adding too much. Should the rub and buff come out thick? Thank you for responding.
I have not had it lift off! If you add before you peel the vinyl, be sure to remove the vinyl while the paint is still wet. And yes the rub and buff is thick.
@@AngieHolden thank you, it has been very frustrating but I do want to get this figured out. Tried again, kept the rub on (even used a heat gun) for a night, lightly rubbed with a wet napkin, and it happened again, patchy. I will give it ANOTHER try just to finish up this RNB. 🤔 Thank you for responding
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?

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 ?
@@karkule5919 thanks for the tips. Will attempt 1 more time.
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!
Where do you get rub and buff in south Africa
Thank you Angie for this tutorial. It is very helpful and you have done the hard work for us.
Glad it was helpful!

Oh yay! I hope it works perfectly!
Thanks for showing options for this technique.
My pleasure 😊
Appreciate your ppe safety comments at the top. A lot of folks are not doing that.
Yep!
I love, love, love the way you teach! You're amazing. Thank you!
Thank you, Angie! Videos like this are very helpful.
Would adding an acrylic clear coat just over the etching work for preservation or would you have to coat the entire glass surface?
My guess is the entire thing since you will be able to see where it is.
Thanks for sharing this! I’ve always wanted to see options for tinting etchings!!
Happy to help!

They are from Michaels. You can see more here: ruclips.net/video/CuQg0N5GSbU/видео.html

It might? I tried a few things and got about the same result.

I am not sure actually. It may look different in the places where it was already etched.

I am using this on glasses that have been etched with etching cream. Maybe there is a different texture?
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.
So what about doing dishwasher safe modpog on it to seal it
I actually do not like Dishwasher Safe Mod Podge!
Thoughts on sealing the alcohol ink/rub-n-buff to make it last longer?
I didn't really see anything that I liked?
Does the rub and buff wash off when cleaning the glass after use?
I had good luck with it staying!
Thanks@@AngieHolden

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!
Has anyone worked with the clear plates from Dollar Twenty Five Tree for etching?
They should work!
So ,Rub and Buff is not washable? As in a drinking glass?
I would hand wash as it will wear off.
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.
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.
How did you etch the beer can?
Try this: ruclips.net/video/CuQg0N5GSbU/видео.html
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 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.
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 ♥️♥️♥️♥️
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.
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!
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!
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
Could you please show how to make a stencil.
Try this link: ruclips.net/video/CuQg0N5GSbU/видео.html
Do you cure the glass after adding color?
I did not.
Good evening Angie Holden from New South Wales Australia 🇦🇺
Welcome!
Rub n buff is so useful
It really is!
Thank you
You're welcome!
Did you try food coloring?
I did not.
Maybe you should add a drop of water to the ink.?
Thx for sharing
Thanks for watching!
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.
