Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Have you ever wanted to do color engraving? Well now you can add color to your metal engraving with the three methods in this video. I am using a Sharpie, a stamp enamel marker, as well as Rub-n-Buff to show you how to add color to engraved lines on both aluminum and acrylic. You can pick and choose which of these methods you like best and start engraving on your Cricut machine. Remember engraving works with the Cricut Maker and Maker 3 as well as on the Explore models with the off-brand tool. Grab that Cricut engraving tip and start making some projects!

    Never thought of rub and buff! I have engraved acrylic then sublimated on back. Turns out so nice.

    My mom got me hooked on rub and buff years ago. She would repair antique frames and used it there. Way back in the 1960's. You can use a nail polish remover. Acetone free. Not as stinky as mineral spirits.

    I had a laser engraver and made acrylic engraved jewellery for 10 years , selling all over the world. On laser engraving forums many people speculated about what I used to colour my engraving and I 100% used rub n buff ! In my case I mainly used white acrylic with black rub n buff. It's permanent, even going through the washing machine , and I highly recommend using rub n buff . I used a cheap nail polish remover ( acetone) to wipe off the excess rub n buff ...super easy. I am now retired but if you are interested it was WendyJ jewellery, and I am in New Zealand . I now own a cricut maker !

    Thanks for the great tutorial. I’ve tried engraving on my Cricut maker, but not very good. The text I used was pretty thin & just didn’t show up very well, what type of text would be the best to use.

    During Christmas, I looked for your previous video on this and couldn’t find it. I tried sharpie, didn’t work. I finally found impress marker, that also didn’t work. Hmm, going to try the rub and buff. Thanks again for this video.
