"I got this idea after my friend's store was tagged"


I am curious as to way you came up with this idea after your friend's store was tagged. What are the circumstances that led to the discovery of frosting a flashlight bulb in the first place?

Hello Helliant1,
You post this on Oct-13-2017...
Today, it's Jun-19-2020...I guess I have been away from this forum for awhile! LOL!

To answer your question, I was helping to clean the store windows that were tagged. At the time, I did not realized that acid was used to etched graffiti onto the glass. Scrubbing would not take it off! After googling the phenomenon , I was fascinated that acid can do that to glass. Long story short, I found out that people have been staining glass with acid as a hobby. Just thought I try it out on glass bulbs.

Cheers!
