Thank you for your kind advice David.
Yup, me too did a search on Nital and apparently this is an etchant used on carbon steel, primarily for carbon steel microstructure examination. It can stain carbon steel but like you've said, this work best for new steel material. I guess nothing beats the old tradition warangan method.
