I use to use mayonnaise in a stainless steel container with the edge touching the mayo and the other edge touching the container as it sat on a bread board. I haven't done it in awhile though. Not since I fell off the deep end and can no longer accomplish much modeling wise. The process is a little slow, normally over night. I also have used drain cleaner. I would buy "Red Devil" brand at the local hardware store. It was cheap and very effective compared to the national brands like, DrainO. Ah, but alas, it happens to also be used to make "speed", an illegal methamphetamine drug so the company took it off the market to protect us. It was a great paint remover too! I also keep an alcohol lamp lit when I do solder work on brass models. My fuel of choice is "Colman Camp stove fuel", or methanol, wood alcohol, white gas (not kerosene). It is also used to make "speed" so I suspect it will go away soon.

For those unfamiliar with Etchant, model builders have used it for quickly and very effectively weathering corrugated aluminum sheet stock for roofs and siding. ------------------------------------ Yahoo!
