I have tried Alucorex and liked the outcome - it is photochemically 
treated aluminium.

The procedure is a bit like making prints in oldschool 
black-and-white photography: I printed on overhead film, put it on 
top of the aluminium and exposed it to an UV beam.
After that it went into a warm bath of 10% NaOH where the exposed 
parts wash off with a soft brush.
Of course this allows for analogue tricks like pseudo-solarization 
and the like.
