       What is the process to do cream etching and how hard is it to
       make it work? Where can I get it and what kind works best? I'm
       gone buy a cabinet and sand blasting equipment but thought I
       might try this first.

       Liljohn I have seen it at Michaels and AC Moore. I have not used
       it but A friend that has said you need to apply it and let it
       sit for 10-15 minutes then wash it off. He also said it was very
       inconsistent. Good luck with it.

       Michaels has it and Walmart supposedly does but I never could
       find it. There are plenty of suppliers online. How I like Bob
       don't like the outcome of using etching cream. You have to clean
       the glass for the stencils to stick then wash the open areas of
       glass so the cream will bite into the glass and the 15 to 20
       minutes of wait time is a waste specially if you have animals
       mine tried to knock it off the work bench. In that 15 minutes
       with a sandblaster you could do about 5 mugs in the time you
       have to wait for one or two with the cream.
