It uses silicone pads to transfer ink from etched metal plates onto surfaces with complex shapes or curves – such as swag items like mugs, pens, keychains and more!

Etching is a sophisticated way to personalize your favorite mug or wine glass! You can achieve this through either sandblasting or laser engraving. Sandblasting begins by applying the logo stencil onto the surface of the mug or glass - then, a fine layer of sand is blasted to create an etched impression that won't wash away. Alternatively, opt for laser engraving and watch as a beam vaporizes ceramic and glass material from its surface to permanently form your chosen design seamlessly. Enjoy long-lasting results while keeping it dishwasher safe!
