Etched Brass & St/ Steel Plaques

Tech Spec
After printing with acid resisting ink, the unprotected areas of the plaque are exposed to a
ferric chloride etch ant, this chemical attacks & eats away areas not covered by ink.
The resulting etched areas are then covered by an ink in the required colour, stoved and
the original ink removed leaving etched sunk characters. An alternative to this is a simple
contrast etch, matt characters on a polished background, this effect will withstand any
amount of polishing and is a hardwearing alternative to etch and filled plaques.
Surface printed Plaques
A low cost option is to surface print using a two – pack epoxy ink. This can be used on both
brass & st/steel plaques and provides a durable yet economic able plaque.
