    With both methods the media being used (copper/aluminum) are softer than steel but harder than rust. If memory serves me correctly, the water & aluminum creates a chemical reaction on the rust. So, with that in mind either method 'should' have no effect on the etching. I have not personally tried either but it makes sense.
