Title: Acid etch your own hard to find emblems
Post by: themoose on October 01, 2013, 08:37:41 PM

From time to time you might run across the need to recreate or duplicate an emblem of tag for you project to give it that final touch. I have been in that boat a few times especially with restorations but sometime you just want to create a custom emblem to personalize something and make one of a kind. I have use the attached etching process to create some pretty elaborate items such as the tags on generators and starters. Your only limited by your own imagination Once you have them etched you can even add color by painting the background and wiping the paint off of the high areas to give you a very professional looking finished product. Take a peek at the attached PDF file and see what you think.

Hi Moose...well, thank you a thousand times for this.  I always wondered how this was done and now I know.  What a slick idea!
