Default Metal Etching

Just wondering if anyone has used this kit or what they use to etch metal.
http://www.etch-o-matic.biz/eom.htm

I'm looking for an inexpensive way to etch a logo onto some parts I'm making and the kit looks pretty good.

Looks cool. I wonder what the durability of the etch is and also how long it really takes to set up all that stuff. Seems like each step is simple enough but there is a lot to it.

Interesting, I don't see how thats an "etch"

Sounds like it can scratch off really easily.

taken from their site:
"Using an Electro- Chemical principle, the New ETCH-O-MATIC can Etch as Deep as .003" of an Inch in Less than 30 Seconds or Mark the Hardest Tool Steel and Carbides almost Instantly."
I don't think it'll scatch off

"up to .003 inch"

We all know it won't be fully expected like that... I cant imagine the horror...
