Thanks man! I believe the CG BJ is full height convex. At least this one is. The etching part isn’t that bad. I got it down pretty good. It is satisfying to see that Busse Logo deep in the Infi after the coating is gone. I used a Dremel brand set of wheels. Finishing abrasive buffs. These seam like a scotch pad material.Love the BJ. Your stripper set-up is much like what my own has evolved to. Simple and effective. Full height flat grind blades tend to give very clean surfaces. I'm too lazy to etch the logo, but will finish the 'ghetto satin' by cleaning up with a Scotchbite wheel.
What did you use for the final finish? Very nice.
I used ferric chloride. I put a few drops on with a q-tip. Left it for 30-45 min. Rinsed with hot water and scrubbed with tooth brush and dish soap. Repeat about 8 times.What method did you use to etch the logo?

No batteries. I have only used this method. Worked great on my DS6 as well. Got this stuff from amazon.So no batteries, just the fc?
