I have a 6063 aluminun tube with a fiberglass/epoxy outer wrap. Is there an reasonably fast and effective way to chemically dissolve the aluminum tube, without seriously degrading the fiberglass outer shell?
Any suggestion will be much appreciated.

Sulphuric acid will dissolve aluminum, but this is a very slow process and the acids are a bit of a risk to use, too. Aluminum is a very strang metal and resists corrosion very well with an aluminum oxide layer. This is a hard question.

| you may try with concentrated alkali solution (NaOH, KOH), that will dissolve Al and will not react with epoxidic resins
