Using glass etching cream on rimless tank?

[Tonii]

Good evening guys,

I currently have a Fluval M90 which has a frosted etch that covers the waterline. I'm working on my new tank which is a 80 gallon rimless tank. I would like to use Armour Etch around the top of the tank to cover the water line.

Just wondering if anyone has ever used that on an aquarium? Any info or input would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance....

Just curious, why etch the waterline?

Mainly to cover the calcium build up where the water splashes over the water line but I also like the look of the frosted edges.

Cant you still see the buildup, and I am guessing it's much harder to clean after, if you can see it that is.

No it can't be seen through the frosted grass

I know this thread is a year old, but was curious if you followed through on this? I would like to see how it came out.
