Etching Aluminum Siding.

Hi all.

Last weekend I went to my local “Radio Shack” to get a bottle of etchant (Ferric chloride) for some Campbell corrugated siding.

They said corporate told them a year ago that they should stop selling it because someone could make a bomb out of it.

That being said what could be used to do get a rusted and holed through look for corrugated aluminum?

I want to make a fence for a scrap yard on my layout.

Thanks.

Other places still sell it. Look for Printed Circuit Board Etchant.
