Depending on the type of paint you use (each manufacture has different requirements) you can make them dishwasher safe by curing your glasses once you have applied your paint. I use acrylic paints or enamel paints. I usually let my glasses set to dry 24 hours then cure them in the oven . To Cure: Place your glasses upside down on a baking tray. Place in a cold oven, bake at 350F for 30 min. After 30 min, turn your oven off . Do not open the oven. Leave in the oven to cool down completely ( I leave mine overnight) They are now dishwasher safe.
You mention you use acrylic paints ! ***** So you do etching 1st? Then you rub acrylic paint over etched area? Then you rub acrylic paint off etched area? Once you rub off excess acrylic paint does it stay embedded into etched area? If above questions/directions are correct……then put in oven? Will the color(s) stay permanent with out using any sealer if I just hand wash? Thanks VM
I have done paint and it works. You can also leave the stencils on and spray spray paint on to like a piece of cardboard and apply it with a cloth or a paint brush whatever......
To.permanently seal there are several options. There is clear spray paint, polyacrylic, if using for a drinking glass I would do an epoxy resin coat but you to will need a tumbler turner so it spins while it dries. But for this you could use dish to washer safe mod podge but something they fail to add to the label is dishwasher safe doesn't mean its safe to eat off of.
Is there any way to “deepen” the results of the etched glass, so that it has more contrast against the clear glass? I was thinking of trying to do a second coat after washing off the first coat but leaving the stencil on and drying the glass overnight before applying a second coat of the etching cream to see if that will result in a more contrast look in the finished product. I would love to hear your thoughts on this seeing as how you have so much experience with the product. Thank you in advance!!
Also, I have seen some videos where the crafter actually scrapes away the cream and saves it for reuse in the future. Do you have any experience with reusing the cream and if so, how did it affect the finished product? Thanks again!!
I have engraved glass, then painted the engraving with acrylic and clean away excess, then I put in oven and when baking leave it there to completely cool. It was hen can survive multiple hand washings.
Have you tried doing the same technique but with ceramic paint? I've been meaning to try it with some glass/ceramic paint from folkart. It's dishwasher safe after curing (can be done with or without heat, just takes longer without). It's held up very well on glass that I've just painted directly on. It's just very obviously painted on top. I'm hoping it'll catch good in the etching, so it can have a smoother, stained etch look. Also, I've cut stencils out of transfer tape to use with armor etch. It works pretty well, and is easier to take off than the vinyl. The only drawback is finer details don't work well. Just putting that out there if anyone is looking to do any designs that aren't very detailed. Obviously do a test piece first if you want to try that
I do this with colured uv resin after etching, I apply my stencil, carefully add the resin then cure, it stays! Not dishwasher safe, but for decor purposes it comes out amazing. Also, I add the entire stencil to my piece before weeding, it gives more stability to the weeding process I find.
Depending on what it is applied onto, I usually just seal it first (if needed), put it on my mug turner & apply a coat of resin. You can also seal it with dishwasher safe mod podge. There’s a caveat with this suggestion though; regardless of its claims, I have found that it’s NOT actually top dishwasher rack safe, or at least not for terribly long. It wears off eventually, so I now just hand wash anything I used it on and didn’t bother getting more of it once I finally ran out. I would suggest looking into using an actual glass paint/stain rather than doing it this way - personally I use Pēbēo Vitrail Glass Paints, but I believe Folkart recently put out a much less expensive glass paint line. (I’ve not used it myself, so can’t recommend it one way or another. Just be aware that Pēbēo makes two different types of glass paint - Vitrea (water base) and Vitrail (solvent base). *Vitrail* doesn’t require any extra steps such as heat, etc, but you will need a solvent-based cleaner for your brushes. *Vitrea* must be cured in an oven to thermo-fix your design & make it waterproof.
Thank you so much and well done. May i ask you about the program name for stickers in cri cut i got cricut but have no idea abut how to print ar how to use the program please . Thank you so much x
I’ve recently began glass etching but have had poor results with Rub ‘n Buff. When I applied the Rub ‘n Buff, it would not come off the rest of the glass no matter how hard I rubbed. What am I doing wrong?? Thanks
I wish you would have said the part about the rub n buff not being washable up front. I watched the whole video for nothing. I know how to use Armour Etch.

I have been using Armour Etch for over 30 years. A fabulous product.
that’s amazing. im so upset i’ve just now learned of it. it almost feels like gettin away with murder it makes it so easy! 😱
Hi Linda, have you ever used it on “lead free crystal”?
@@sandiegofishingguys4966 no I have not. Someone posted the Etching Cream doesn’t work on that.

I'll have to try it with the ceramic paint without heat. According to the FDA, without heat curing it would be considered food safe after 30 days.

How would you cure it with heat?
Great video, but we need something that wont wash away. Most glass etching is done on - well - "glasses." We need a more permanent solution.
Etch it color it and put a layer of clear sealant or resin on it. Maybe

Just curious if using a dishwasher safe modgepodge would lift the color? It may be worth a try to
Just use a polyacrylic spray
Thank you for the tutorial!! When washing the etching cream off, does it hurt your drains? Thank you! 🤩💐
If I am correct SOME ONE SAID rinse in a stainless sink think was
CORINNE BLACKSTONE on her etch vid
My suggestion just go outside and rinse
Just in time for my project for my daughter
Have fun!
Looking forward to this class! Thank you!
You are so welcome!
That was great to learn the coloring
Glad you liked it!
Awesome presentation....I learned a lot!!
So glad!
Purchased a Cricut Maker, have not used as it seems so complicated to program. My primary is interest was to cut stencils.
You can do it!
Oh I need to see this I've tried so many methods
Me too
You got this!
@@MakersGonnaLearn hi how you custom Crocs with a cricket
Great idea. Could you put crystalac brite tone or resin/epoxy or clear spray so it won’t wash off?
Thanks for Sharing. I love etching projects!
You are so welcome!
Could you add your color before removing the stencil?
Thank you for this tutorial!
If you use oil paints you can leave vinyl on seen a lady do it but she dab then took paper towels and dab excess paint off was wonderful
This was great!! Thanks so much!!
You're so welcome!
Could you write the name of the color you used..
This is awesome..
What about “lead free crystal” how long should the cream be left on?
Question: do u thk uv resin can help seal the rub n buff to avoid wash out. I need something more permanent.
Would sharpie work? I have had success with it on plastic bottles going through the washing machine. The etch would give it something to grab on to.
I have seen it done with an oil based enamel paint. It seemed permanent.
It’s much easier to remove the vinyl stencil while you still have it under the warm running water after washing the etching cream off.
Thanks for sharing!
Thank you so much and well done. May i ask you about the program name for stickers in cri cut i got cricut but have no idea abut how to print ar how to use the program please . Thank you so much x
What about adding a sealer
LOVED this tutorial!!! Thank you so much Lauren😊
You're so welcome!
Is there a way to paint glaze, of some sort, over the actual etched lines to make it more permanent?
Excited to see this
Yay!!!
Can’t wait
What did you use to add color?
I’ve recently began glass etching but have had poor results with Rub ‘n Buff. When I applied the Rub ‘n Buff, it would not come off the rest of the glass no matter how hard I rubbed. What am I doing wrong?? Thanks
Thank you!😁
You're welcome!
Could you seal the rub and buff with dishwasher safe Mod Pog?
I was just going to ask this question!
@@cyndigrohowski3235 Still no answer maybe you will have some luck
Also wear safety goggles to protect eyes
Curious as to how this will be achieved and how permanent it will be.
what brand is your mat?
Couldn't a person seal in the rub n' buff with polocrylic or something?
So cute 🥰
The manufacturer of that vinyl surely should have picked a backing in a different color other than white to make weeding easier.
What about acrylic paint
Love It , So awesome thank you.
Thank you too!
So cute!
Thank you!❤
Great video. Is there a permanent way to color etch? Also, have you tried speedball?
I was just thinking speed ball too
Hello everyone
Hello friend!
I tried to put two layers but the first layer comes off what am I doing wrong
Can I do this on a Pyrex baking dish, then still use the dish in the microwave and oven?
I haven't actually tried this but from what I've heard this etching cream doesn't work on pyrex
I’ve used it on Pyrex and it works just fine.🤷♀️
Depends on how Pyrex is printed. Older version don’t work.
Awesome
Thank you!
So u can’t add color to the Etching component during the 1st process
I wonder if this will work on wood
Hi no this will not work on wood. You can use a scorch marker wood burning pen with a stencil on wood to achieve the look.
@@sonyascrafts4527 Thank you. I found another great alternative. HTV vinyl, works amazing on wood
Yes it does, okay I thought you were referring to a permanent etch in wood. Glad you found something to work for you. Happy Crafting!
I heard alcohol ink works for colour
I wish you would have said the part about the rub n buff not being washable up front. I watched the whole video for nothing. I know how to use Armour Etch.
I believe if you bake it after you use Rub 'n' Buff, it becomes permanent.
Will you please give us more details on this? I definitely would be very appreciative!
That's true. 350° for 30 minutes.
WHERE is the COLOR ETCHING CREAM part?? Ridiculous dribble
No doing she’s pretty. She must have dropped a few pounds too cause her chin and jaw lines are totally different also. But she is pretty. Js
Could you put Mod Podge over the etching and color to keep it from coming off when you wash it?
You can use a clear spray varnish for sure
