Jackson's Economy Zinc Etching Plate (2 Pack)(162x183mm)(0.8mm Thick)

Economical zinc plate for etching, unpolished, and unbacked. The plate is 0.8mm thick which makes it good for use with small tabletop presses. The zinc has a fine milled finish, ready to polish and degrease for use with traditional resists and grounds.

Great for use with B.I.G. etching grounds or with acrylic grounds. These etching plates are also suitable for non-etched intaglio techniques such as drypoint and engraving.

The back of the plate will require the application of an acid-resistant stop out.
