ETCHING on Glass is performed in the same manner, by first laying on a ground of bees' wax; then drawing on this surface with the needle, as in etching on copper; then pour on it sulphuric acid and flour spar, or fluoric acid sprinkled on it. After remaining on the glass for four or five hours, it may be taken off, and the work cleaned with oil of turpentine.
