Default Re: Can I acid etch a shirt by screenprinting it?

I think they use lasers to 'burn' away the layers, have a look at laserprouk.com, they have some towels on their showcase that have a design 'sheered out' of the fabric. They can be used to remove colour from denim etc. I have seen them 'burn' a design into a pair of jeans by removing the colour.

I don't know if you could use acid but how would you stop it from going too far and ruining the garment.
