Okay, I want names, dates, serial numbers, etc. I would like the board's consensus on the very best liquid etcher, and the very best etching cream.
As an aside, I can say I'm totally unhappy with what I'm using now. I have "Glass Bead Etching Cream" from Arrow Springs, and Etch All liquid. The latter is a "dirty" brown--was that way when it was opened. Is it no good? I have etched some of my lampworked beads satisfacturily, but not stained glass.
Suggestions?
The BEST etcher?

Hi, and no, Alan is not on my payroll, he just seems to respect what I do here at His Glassworks. We do have both an etching powder which you mix with water to make your own solution of etching liquid, and we have a cream consistency etching compound. Names respectively are:
Vari-Etch Frosting Powder and Vari-Etch Etching Cream. Profound, no?
Here is a link to my website: http://www.hisglassworks.com/pages/varietch.html
Lewt me know if we can be of help.

p.s., I agree that if the dip-n-etch is working for you, the brown color should not be an issue.
