  I should know already to not step on the long experience off so much of
  you in here. You use it better than i did, or most people do. My comment
  intention was to point the younger people who in my view should be
  buying muriatic acid, peroxide, food container, air pump instead Ferric
  Chloride. And where i live all those things can be bought in one place
  only and at same price of 1Kg Ferric Chloride in a electronics supply
  store. 

  Not as homebrew, but in a moment of my short life, i also did use more
  than 100L of it in 40%, in a spray machine. And although in theory

  So instead of saying 'X is better' we should present 2 or 3 options to
  everyone always, don't you agree?



  
  Simao,
  I agree with you.  I know some people feel very strong about what they use
  and that is fine with me.   I have been making boards since about 1963 and 
  have a spray etcher but do not use it now.  I still make around 30 boards a month 
  and use nothing but muriatic acid and peroxide Even tho I have a 5 gallon bucket
  of Ferric Chloride  that I do not use.
   So I say to, each his own.
