I was wondering if it will hurt my sink when I rinse it I have a cast-iron porcelain coated sink?

[@ArtistTaraReed]

I’m not sure - I would wipe off as much as possible with paper towels and to be extra safe maybe rinse it in a dish pan and not right in the sink? Better safe than sorry (I’m not an expert on the sink or how the product might affect it - you could reach out to the manufacturers as well)

Can you etch on a Yukon Outfitter tumbler with a raised pattern?

[@ArtistTaraReed]

I haven't tried that but I think it would be hard to get the vinyl really secured to a raised pattern so that the CitriStrip wouldn't bleed outside of where you want it

[@rosemarywilliams5136]

Do you use the heat method

[@ArtistTaraReed]

No - I just let it sit

[@christinedarr6754]

I’ve only had mine sit for 30 minutes and it is enough.

[@TaraReed]

I’ve tried several brands and each has been different. Glad you figured out what worked for you!

[@tinawood5926]

Awww snap!! I’m such a dork!! I’ve done all the work and realized I used hand cleaner not paint remover! Ha!

[@ArtistTaraReed]

oh no!! So you had a soft tumbler with no etching at this point... whoops!

[@tinawood5926]

Yes ma’am! Lol but as with EVERYTHING I have learned in the crafting community..I learn everything the hard way. Thank you for for the tutorial.
