To prevent the ferric chloride from pulling away from the surface of the copperplate, spit or gum arabic is added to it. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Local Vendor","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47742716051677,"sku":"zhane-warren_the-day-i-phoned-sara","price":4025.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0747\/7261\/1293\/files\/zhanewarren_thedaysara-cropped_1_1_f2587926-1567-4b2f-b572-e722d1375290.jpg?v=1775575364","url":"https:\/\/latitudes.online\/products\/the-day-i-phoned-sara","provider":"Latitudes Online","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
