Hello, 
I am going to be etching some brass sheets (0.10" thick) for a 
project I am working on.  I will be etching them to 1/2 thickness.  
Would you recommend the peroxide/muriatic solution for this, or 
would something else be better/safer?

Also, would I be able to regenerate this mix with a bubbler?  I will 
be using the mixture as listed in the files section.

Thanks!
