Default etching

this is where the fun begins. it depends on what was used to make the damascus and what the ph level of your acid are. viniger alone is sold in so many levels of acid and on top of that depends how much you dilute it. suggetion only yes this is your science project. leave it in for a day quick wash it with a hose leave it for 3 days check at 7 last at 14. fruit juices include pinaple, tomato,lime,orange, even ketshup tomato and vinegar. whostershire will even work. wine if you leave it out a day or so. tell wife to clean the cubbords since you just moved throw in blender and you are set. the fun gets to be if you ever want to reproduce the results or explain those dark stains or etch in the pots to the wife.
