[Jewelry making - Article 00034] - [Orchid] Resists for etching silver

    Hello everyone! I have just started etching my designs into 18 ga.
    silver discs, and I am having some trouble with resists. I am using
    a paint pen, and the pen is flaking into the ferric nitrate and the
    etchant is pitting parts of my silver and etching through parts of
    my design. 

    If you have any suggestions as to what to change or consider, any
    assistance would be most appreciated. 

Thanks very much-
Dani
