I have a cutomer that is bringing me 144 champagne glasses. I use to pad print on them, but I would like to etch them with the blaster I bought from Bob at the meet in Oklahoma.
Can anyone advise me on how to price it. It is a pretty detailed logo. But I have no idea of a ball park type price.
Thanks for all your help

Man that's tough one. Champagne glasses are usually pretty thin and tall. So your available area is kinda tiny, with a detailed logo that can spell headache pretty quick.
I would call Bob Pickard and ask him, he does that stuff everyday. So he probably has a better idea of what the market will bear.
Sorry I don't have any better advice for you.

Rhonda, how do you like your Pab Blaster? I bought one a few months ago and unfortunately have not had time to practice much with it. I LOVE mine!! Sorry, but I can't help you either. I would go online and do a search for the going prices on such jobs.
I can't wait to get going with some glass art. Super outfit isn't it?

I don't know how well I like the PABA yet, I have not used it. But I am sure I will be happy.
I have no idea how long it would take to blast them. I could print them alot faster, but I thought this would be cool for the customer if they were willing to pay for it.
I'll call Bob this week and see what he thinks. I may blast just a few for her to show her how cool they are!!!
I'll let you know how many I blow up!

bought a paashe air eraser back about 4 years ago, was going to tinker into this, and have used it a little bit. i have charged 3-7 per glass for etching.
of course it depends on the design and quantity. i would layout designs and plot it on vinyl place on glass and blast. very quick simple!
the less the quantity the more the price. kinda like screenprinting. hope this helps!
