To avoid the double-image, it's best to do this kind of etching in reverse on the back side of the glass.

it's fun to do on mirrors, too. the vinyl works okay. if someone doesn't have access to that, what you can do is get some clean shelf liner, draw your design on it, and use an x-acto knife to cut it out. i never tried using just packing tape, but i bet that would work, too.

That really turned out GREAT!! I recently bought an old home that has a 12 pane glass door on the cellar in the basement. It's an odd sized door but fits the frame going up to the dormer upstairs. I use this space for a large bedroom. I put the door on so i could have a door to my bedroom should I choose to use it. I'm in the process of refinishing it and this is SUCH a great idea! I already do this on glasses so i don't know why i didn't think of this sooner! Thank you!! (Not that I expect you to remember after 2 years , but what was the font you used?). Thanks again!

Awesome project! What kind of vinyl did you use for the stencil? And what kind of transfer tape? Thanks in advance!

@reddirtdesigns7021 2 жыл бұрын

I used cricut removable vinyl for the stencil and I use the clear shelf liner you get at Walmart for the transfer tape it’s super cheap! Thanks for watching!

Does the glass thickness matter, meaning if the glass is thin do you put lesser cream? And good work as well, I’m ready to try this

@reddirtdesigns7021 2 жыл бұрын

The cream puts a very thin etch on any thickness of glass! It doesn’t matter how thick the glass is, but I would definitely make sure you put the cream on thick and consistent as possible for a nice uniform etch! Thanks for watching

Great video .. looking to try this for the first time, however, for a solid oak, inside door, with 12 panes -- so rinsing isn't really an option .. any advise is welcome!

@reddirtdesigns7021 2 жыл бұрын

Wear gloves and use Plenty of paper towels just clean them with dry paper towels careful not to get it on other things in you house. I’d Have a trash bag or grocery sack close by that you dispose the used paper towels. Once you have the etching cream cleaned off I would just use Windex or whatever glass cleaner you use to finish cleaning the whole surface. Thanks for watching

@@reddirtdesigns7021 thanks! Didn't realize I could do this without the hose -- awesome! I have 2 big, solid oak doors with thermal glass with broken seals .. etching seemed a better solution than trying to remove 12 panes in each of 2 doors! Much appreciated!! 👍

You bet also make sure you mask really well only get the etching cream where you want it to etch

For the final whipe down did yu use alcohol again? Or jus a clean paper towel

@reddirtdesigns7021 2 жыл бұрын

You can use alcohol or wax and grease remover for The final wipe down. Then I’d probably go over it with a glass cleaner to help get rid of the smears. Thank you for watching!

@sasiabarbie Жыл бұрын

have you done this with glass already installed? I want to update my front door but I can't really remove the small window panels on the sides to do them

@reddirtdesigns7021 Жыл бұрын

You can do the glass that’s already installed just Mask off all the areas that you don’t want to etch and when you clean the etching cream off just do it carefully don’t get the cream on anything that you don’t want to damage, but it can be done. And I’d use old rags or towels and wipe it clean don’t need to flush it with water. Just get the bulk of the cream off with dry rags then use damp ones to finish cleaning it. Then unmask area when all cream is cleaned off should work just fine.

I saw bubbles in the plastic, and I may have missed it, but did you wipe the edges with plastic?

@reddirtdesigns7021 Жыл бұрын

Bubbles in the plastic shouldn’t hurt as long as they’re not along the exposed areas which would cause bleed through.

@stephaniewilcox-651 Жыл бұрын

I was worried about the etching cream running down the wood when you rinse. Does that not cause any issue with the finish on the wood?

@reddirtdesigns7021 Жыл бұрын

It did not but you could always tape some plastic over the wood it probably wouldn’t hurt

STUPID QUESTIONS: Do you use removable sticker vinyl? Or non-removeable? Such as Orcal 651

@reddirtdesigns7021 Жыл бұрын

Not a stupid question I use removable cricut vinyl because it is much easier to remove I’m sure the non removable would work with a heat gun or hairdryer to warm the the vinyl for easier removal.
