- Burrs are those that hold the ink in the printing process.
- The roughness of the burrs represent the characteristic feature of drypoint, constitute a continuous veil different tones and give a velvety appearance inimitable.
- The number of copies can be obtained with this technique is limited due to the burr wears quickly with the pressure of the press, the inking and cleaning. should therefore be avoided state tests.
- The line depth is directly dependent on the pressure with steel tip.
- The dashed lines can be degraded by scraping and burnishing subtly burrs carefully. Fine lines generated light gray tones, and the thicker the dark.
