I've taught you how to etch glass the easy way using a vinyl stencil and some etching cream, and using this technique, you can personalize nearly any glass, including wine glasses, coasters, and decorative glass plaques. It's really quite easy! But what if you want to etch glass BAKEWARE, like a Pyrex casserole dish? Can you do it and still put food in it? Yes, you can -- and I'm going to show you how to do etched casserole dishes in this tutorial!

Now, glass etching is nothing more than roughening up the surface of the glass in specific areas to create a design. You can do it in a bunch of different ways, but the easiest way is do it chemically using an etching cream. You can literally just paint the etching cream on your glass, wait a bit, and rinse it off, but it's much more effective and attractive to create and apply a vinyl stencil and THEN put the etching cream on, and that's the technique I am teaching you today.
So for this tutorial, you'll want a glass casserole dish, or really any glass bakeware will do. I've heard reports that older Pyrex casserole dishes, like those made before 1998, were made of a different type of glass (called borosilicate) that is harder to etch. But all the Pyrex casserole dishes sold in the U.S. since then etch just as well as any other sort of glass. So don't worry too much about this unless you're using a pretty ancient casserole dish. For this tutorial, I am using a two quart 7" x 11" Pyrex oblong baking dish that I bought from Amazon -- links to everything in this tutorial are in the video's description.
I recommend permanent vinyl over removable vinyl because it will form a tighter seal, and thus a better and clearer etched design.
I use Armor Etch glass etching cream and it works great. You don't need much either, so a little goes a long ways.
Other useful things to have when etching your glass bakeware include transfer tape for getting your stencil onto your bakeware, alcohol to clean your glass surface before applying the stencil, masking tape to make sure you don't etch outside your design, and tools like a paintbrush, a weeding tool, and a scraping tool.
Read the instructions on your etching cream bottle, especially the safety precautions and what to do if get some cream on you. You should be fine if you wear gloves, an apron, mask, and eye protection.
Now, the key to etching glass casserole dishes and any other glass that will come into contact with food is to put the etching on the OUTSIDE of the glass, so that means either on the dish's underside or outer sides. This allows you to cook food in the bakeware normally without any harm to the etching. In the process of etching, a very thin layer of glass is removed and that area becomes susceptible to staining from food. But if you keep the etching on the OUTSIDE, it pretty much never touches the food and stays looking great. And I will show you how to apply your stencil to the underside of your dish so your design shows through properly!
