Jackson's : Polished Copper Etching Plate : 0.9mm Thick : 200x200mm

Jackson's 0.9mm polished copper plate for etching. The polished surface is protected with a plastic film so simply requires degreasing before applying ground.

The back of each plate will require the application of an acid-resistant stop out. Copper is a harder metal than zinc and plates and will withstand a greater number of prints being taken. It is also ideally suited to non-etching intaglio techniques such as drypoint, engraving, and mezzotint.
