Etch Glass Supply list Note: this will not work on Pyrex Pattern: You might want to start with a pattern that does not have a lot of small detail. Clip art and coloring books are wonderful sources for patterns. Glass: Several small glass objects – jar or drinking glass, vases. Utility Knife: Cut your pattern out of the contact paper using a utility knife. Rubber Gloves: Protect your hands from the acid in the etching cream. It is also a good idea to wear eye protection and a long sleeve shirt. This will not work on Pyrex.
