Subject: Re: [Homebrew_PCBs] Hydrogen peroxide mixing

From: Jim <jhutch17@...>
Date: 2011-03-06

I buy and use 27% hydrogen peroxide sold at the pool supply store ...
It seems some people don't like green hair caused by chlorine that most
people
put in their pools. The people that I have questioned about using 27%
H2O2 in
their pool say it is better than the chlorine.
One gallon of 27% H2O2 costs $19
I save my used etch (it is dark green) and add about 7 milliliters of
27% H2O2
to 300 ml of used etch to etch a board.
