Ok fellow Hogs, Dogs and Rats. I discovered something on my own with 9v etching. After several blades the thought came to mind to reverse the poles after an etch to see if the black "carbon mud" would actually adhere to the blade to achieve a "blackout" looking etch. And by golly....I think I did pretty well for a guessing attempt. Thought I'd share guys. Not sure if this is a new discovery in general....but it's new for me and was really easy. Just etched it...left a little black mud on the last run...reversed poles...then ran over it as usual a few times til I felt comfortable with it....super happy with this B8 etch and strip. Rock on Hogs and stay groovy.
So how long does it take to get a nice defined etch like that?I got a better etch using this method than last time when I tried the battery charger (A/C) method. My etch didn't come out black though, maybe because it's on SR101? But it did etch nice and deep on this Regulator Appreciate you posting this up!
