Salt Water Electro-Etching Stencils for your 80% Lower Receiver Projects

After completing my first 80% lower, it looked very boring without all the manufacturer's markings that gives a lower receiver it's character. I thought about sending it off to get is custom engraved but that seems like a lot of money and time involved. I started to Google one day and ran into a YouTube video where a woman was demonstrating a metal etching tecnique called "Salt Water Electro-Etching". After watching the VIDEO and seeing how easy it was, I attempted it with low expectations. The result blew my mind. Who knew salt water, a 9V battery and a bunch of Q-tips can etch metal. I've researched and created several stencils for all the clone builds out there to help you get one step closer to building a clone-correct weapon. If you don't see one that you would like to do, please email me and I can make custom stencils (gang logo, wife's name, etc.) should you wish to attempt this DYI etching process at home. You will receive a high quality, detailed vinyl stencil that you can apply right onto your receiver.

NOTE: This etching process only works on bare metal. Parkerizing, anodizing, paint and Cerakote should be completely removed from the etching site before you try this.
