I use 1:1:1 and with near Nill agitation and without heating I the pcb is etched in les than 2 minutes. I use HCL 29%, H2O2 31%, and 100% H2O Dne 10.7.2012 17:53, pi\ufffde Peter: > Never tried acid etching myself. This might be worth noting: > If your PCB is lying flat in the bottom of the etch container, the disloved copper will leave a film on your PCB. This effectively acts as a barrier between the PCB and etchant. The answer is to agitate the PCB or as mentioned, use something like a paint brush. Also mentioned is highter temperatures which usually speeds up chemical reactions - sometimes to a mad gallop. :-) > > Peter > Shetland Islands. > > [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] >
