I know others have commented on using white spray paint to get a black etching, and that was what I tried first when I got into this, but I found that using cheap acrylic craft paint - I use Apple Barrel Snow White - sprayed in three or four coats with an airbrush not only gives a MUCH darker etch, but it is SO much easier to clean off than the spray paint. A quick wash and wipe with water and a paper towel and your good to go versus the mess and hassle of using acetone to get the spray paint off. I was REALLY impressed with the results you got, though, and I am going to HAVE to try that! Finally... I just had to comment on your little girl's name. It is so cool because that is my girlfriend's name and it is so rare to hear anyone named Evelyn, especially children. :)

You can use a white rustoleum spray paint on the tile before hand, then do the engraving the same way you did, then after remove all the paint from the tile. it give nice black engraving.

Hi! Nice Work! I’m wondering if you coat this tile with something like paint etc. so the engraveer is transparent like without any colour? I know that if you use some rustoleum paint you will receive black engraveer, but how to receive this transparent result to paint it later? Thanks in advance for the answer.

@PGHATCO 2 ай бұрын

No coating. Just engrave straight out of the box. I think the no color looks great also. We have some floating around with our family initials.

@marquees09 Жыл бұрын

It's not good to look at the area being engraved, especially with glass/white surfaces. It can actually cause damage to the eyes. You can buy glasses that protect your eyes/get a film to put over the glass... just food for thought, especially with the kids

@lightning4201 Жыл бұрын

Ty for the video. What is the science behind why the sharpie colors stick to the lasered areas? Is it because the lasered area is rough and the rest of the tile is smooth?

@PGHATCO 11 ай бұрын

Correct. Imagine coloring on your granite kitchen counter with a sharpie and wiping it off. Then going outside on your concrete driveway with a sharpie and trying to wipe it off.

Great video, great family project, cute kids! One question regarding coloring the engraved areas. Have you tried to rub acrylic paint into the image? Sharpie is great, but over time it does not hold up well with solvents (especially alcohol or alcohol in cleaners), and is not as light-fast as acrylic paint. Like ink, the solvent for acrylic is alcohol, but it usually is more archival than most inks. Any thoughts?

@PGHATCO Жыл бұрын

I'm sure that could work. This was just a quick simple method

@nomula2 Жыл бұрын

With the acrylic paint being rubbery and not sticking to some surfaces, would it stick in the cracks long-term? I always figured it would eventually rub out as well.

@Mariosyian4ever 2 жыл бұрын

What would happen if I were to first color then engrave? Would the color of the sharpie or spray paint be absorbed, or just burn and turn into black?

@PGHATCO 2 жыл бұрын

You could do this. Say if we painted a coaster red then engraved the design, the design would be white with the rest staying red. However I don't know how well sharpie would hold up on the smooth surface. It absorbs permanently into the course engraved areas. Give it a test and let us know 😎

@Mariosyian4ever 2 жыл бұрын

@@PGHATCO Ohh I see! I was hoping that the design would be left red, then I can wash off the rest so it's red design on white tile (like how you first paint white plastic with a black sharpie and engrave it to get a black design)

@PGHATCO 2 жыл бұрын

@@Mariosyian4ever I've not heard of that method but I'll try soon. What you mentioned though with the red engraving as red sounds just like what we did but adding color afterwards then wiping residue 🤷🏽‍♂️

@nomula2 Жыл бұрын

@@Mariosyian4ever I was wondering as well because using sharpie markers on glazed ceramics and then refiring is supposed to make it permanent... maybe a lower power on the laser? I did see where they laser etched wood, then dusted colored powdercoat powder into the etching and lasered again to melt and set it. But you need to be able to reposition your piece back where it was so it engraves in the same place, so use an accurate jig.

neat for sure.... but you said you need to upload the image to a web site to get your engraver to work? did I hear this correctly? do these machines rely on web based software only to run? or can you use any program and not be held to the Glowforge web page and their software? what happens if you can not use any other software and they shut down the services... are you then lost and your machines are dead? i am seeking information on different machines and seen this video. very neat ideas. thanks

@PGHATCO Жыл бұрын

Thanks for the comment. Correct everything is cloud based. The software is on their servers so if you don't have internet you cannot access the software. We have really only had one time it was down and that was when they were doing some server upgrades. I believe it was maybe 30 minutes. I can't imagine they would shut their services down. Regardless of your machines you can still access their online software that houses all of your artwork you have uploaded. Hopefully this helped with your question.
