Homebrew PCBs

yes its still good, clumps and all.
heat and agitating work good, but mounting the board vertical and lightly 
spraying the etchant on to the surfaces of the board works much better, but 
you need a chemical proof pump, it has to be stainless or plastic or a combo 
of the two.
we have found some windshield washer spray pumps are all plastic, but be 
carefull because some are not and will be eaten away.
