Adam, 

For whatever reason I did not read this part of your
post. I think you are guaranteed a fine micro mist of
etchant (Just like in a hot shower) inside the etching
machine. The only answer that I see as viable (But not
practical...) is to totally disassemble the motor and
apply protectant to every part that is suspect. If
possible, I would attempt to figure out how to mount
the motor outside and away from the etchant.
