Be Careful
I've seen some very small scale violent chemical reactions.
I don't quite understand how the one part muriatic acid and three parts hydrogen peroxide reacts.
The 1st circuit board I attempted to etch with ferric chloride in an aluminum pie plate educated me as to
how violent chemicals can be.
If you have success with this, I may attempt it.
