Well I did it with 2m hcl and alot of peroxide, I don't know the proportions but it took forever
megahz, if you just stick to the concentrations and proportions I gave you earlier you should not have any problems etching your boards.
What I am telling you is verified by personal experience:
Peroxide: 2 parts (160 ml). Concentration 6% - 9%. - You can almost certainly buy this from a pharmacy.
HCl: 1 part (80 ml). Concentration at least 25%. - You can almost certainly buy this from a hardware store.
You'll have to decide the volume of a "part" - use enough of the mixture to cover the surface of your board when it's lying flat in your etching tank.
Agitate or swirl the etchant so it washes over the surface of your board and keep a close eye on proceedings.
A double-sided FR4 board, roughly 14cm x 12cm etched in 5 to 10 minutes; probably closer to the former.
This method is much more rapid than etching with ferric chloride under similar conditions.
Good luck.
