My first trial using tap water was a huge dud. <br />My second one using distilled water, a lot of salt and a dash of vinegar worked well. Very aggressive on sharpie however. I used both red and black over each other and still lost resist coverage. The design from transfer paper is crisp and deep.

Did you find that copper and plain steel together works better than just plain copper?<br />Also in a setup, we used silver attached to the etched piece instead of copper it looks like you used. Is this any different effect? <br />thanks for your great tutorial!Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12741999894240729100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456327995934825522.post-14344461265764074312014-05-25T12:50:47.293-04:002014-05-25T12:50:47.293-04:00Thank you so much for this post.
