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.

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.

I like that look a lot! Gotta go find me some of those bottles.</p></blockquote>

I've had them for a while but they came from a Dollar Tree.

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.

It took a second for the blaster to dig into the anodized coating bit with a little patience an air eraser might do it.

Off to the Dollar Store

 

Wonder how it would look reverse weeded...hmmmmmmmm

That's what I was going to do but just before I hit cut I changed my mind. If you do it be sure to post a picture.
