1103_etch2.JPG It doesn't take much time in Montreal before you notice how much of the city's graffiti is lifted almost to an artform. While we don't at all advocate vandalism in any form, much graffiti we've spotted in Montreal is downright beautiful: we've even heard of programs where specific walls are designated for graffiti works. Somehow this background helped us to see how a place like Etchpression could flourish here...

 
 

Etchpression is a team of graphic professionals and laser specialists who are dedicated to help you customize your devices. They can etch about anything you can come up with onto your personal devices. Their graphic services aren't the reason we stumbled upon them, though.

We found Etchpression at first because we heard about their other service called iPolish. Bring in your laptop, cell phone, or iPod and for $10 they'll polish all of the scratches out of it. If you're having an etching done, the polishing is done at half price.

What we love about the iPolish service is that it's a level of maintenance that's not often given to electronic devices these days. More often electronics are seen as disposables, throw-aways that aren't worth taking care of because something better and faster is always on the horizon. We love this approach to taking care of what you have, keeping it nice for its useable life. And for what it's worth, the etchings are pretty cool too.

I first got my cellphone etched there. It turned out so nice that I etched my laptop too. Now, my laptop is AMAZING! Everybody notice it and people even come up to me and ask how I got it customized. As of the polishing service, i'll definitely try it out... it'll save me from spending hundreds just to get another iPod.
