Sue2 920 Posted January 20, 2015 I like it, I like it! Did you use the air eraser...doesn't look like air eraser work. Sue2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dawn's Design 403 Posted January 20, 2015 Looks good jaybird. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jaybyrd 3,770 Posted January 20, 2015 Nope not the air eraser. Suction feed gun and I was surprised at how nice it came out. Only problem is I lost my apostrophe in Jay's but it's not for a customer so I can live with it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rlvied 292 Posted January 22, 2015 Looks good Jay, now you are really hooked. It is a hard monkey to get off your back once you get started. I bet you are looking around the house saying what can I etch next. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sue2 920 Posted January 22, 2015 Jay, not only is that a nice pattern...but the etch makes the flask less slippy in your hand, Now I have something else to hunt for at the Dollar Store! I wonder if air eraser would work on that...my sister does etching with an air eraser. Sue2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jaybyrd 3,770 Posted January 22, 2015 It took a second for the blaster to dig into the anodized coating bit with a little patience an air eraser might do it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
