3. What is the technique of applying velvet etch?
Velvet etch is one brand of etch available. Other brands are available that may have different standing time for the etch. When you apply the etch, you need to daub it on instead of brushing it on. Apply etch with a generous amount on the project. Let it stand for five minutes. Wash off with warm water.
