I want to try and etch some polycarbonate (plastic) wine glasses. I don't think the glass etching cream will work, so it was suggested I try a Dremel tool. My husband has one (but won't share), so I am going to purchase my own to add to my own tool collection.

Any suggestions on type and tip to use, once I get my stencil adhered?

The glasses are those thick plastic that are good for outdoor use, but don't look like cheap plastic throwaways.

Thanks for any advice!

It is hard to tell someone what bit to use I would look at the #105,105 or 107 Ball nose engraving cutters. Make sure to practice on some old material.
