Hmmmm, perhaps I shouldn't show this then. My daughter purloined the badge, so had to do another. This time I used an old shilling and it etched much better. The background was filled with a translucent yellow resin.

I'm beginning to suspect you are in fact an alchemist, creating precious metals from base ones. Beautifully done Dave. Just purely out of interest, could you etch lettering or symbols onto metal knobs such as, oh I don't know, the switches on my truck dashboard?

Don't worry, not for a few months yet, but could look cool. I love the coloured finish.
