Step 5Fix the missing spots
As you can see on the image, there are some missing spots, we are going to fix those now:
1.- Take a sharpie pen(or any other indelible ink pen) and paint over the missing spots, retouch any spot 2 or 3 times to allow the ink to cover the spots and resist well the acid.
2.- Use tape to cover big areas/borders, etc.
3.- Picture #3 shows my panel, almost ready to etch.
4.- As you can see on image #4, I used the pnp-blue plastic left over to cover the back of the panel, this is important, you have to cover every part of the panel not going to be etched to prevent the acid from damaging the panel.
note: If the transfer ends up with a lot of missing spots or missaligned, you can clean the panel and start all over again, sometimes is better than fixing any mistakes.
