Re: Bubble-etch tanks in Australia?

2008-03-27 by niponcio

Have you tried the sponge technique suggested by Pulsar
http://www.pulsarprofx.com/PCB/a_Pages/5_Support/5b_Tips_Tricks/Tips_Tricks.html#Anchor-49575
it works great for me, its fast and u waste less acid.

Take a look.

the only consideration is that u have to seal the toner with the 
pulsar green foil or as you can do it, as I have read around, with a
heat gun (never tried it).
