What do you mean by no success - poor quality or something else? The
type of glass is also relevant. I have had good results with 2% conc. HF
+ 2% conc. HNO3 when using soda-lime glass. I have never tried it on
quartz though, but I would not expect it to etch at a similar rate.

isn't too good. I've tried differrent solutions with no success. Has anyone a
good recipe to suggest me?(not just saying BHF 6:1! but the effective
quantities!).
