How do you clean concrete with muriatic acid?

That depends on what you're trying to clean off. Technically, muratic acid removes some of the chemicals that make up the surface of the concete. If the stain is deep you'll need to use a stronger concentration of the muratic acid. If it's just a weak surface stain, you can dilute the acid. The muratic acid will destroy any clothing, especially cotton, that it touches. Even a drop will disolve the cotton where it touches. Concentrated muratic acid that gets in your eyes can cause blindness, so make sure you wear something to protect your eyes. It burns if you get the acid on your skin, so wear gloves and have plenty of water nearby. Beyond that, just put water in a plastic pail then add muratic acid to get to the concentration that you want. I use an automotive wheel cleaning brush to clean with muratic acid, I also wear rubber gloves when I'm using the stronger concentrations. Brush it on, work it a little then rinse it off with water. It takes a small amount of concrete off the surface and changes the appearance of the concrete, but it also removes the stain.For cleaning concrete, I would recommend using a citrus degreaser instead of muriatic acid. It is much more environmentally friendly, and you don't have to be a chemist to use it. You can purchase it at any professional construction material supply store. Available in 1 gallon and 5 gallon. It also smells a lot better than muriatic acid!!


What is the Burn rate of muratic acid?

It depends on the concentration. Common muratic acid is around 20-something percent, and if you get some on your skin, it takes around fifteen seconds for anything to set in. Drain cleaner hydrochloric acid is relatively safer, as it is only ten percent. Lab-grade hydrochloric acid, on the other hand, can eat a chunk off your skin in less then ten seconds.


How would you remove liquid nails from brick?

Scrape off as much as you can then paint it liberally with some gel paint remover such as ZipStrip(R). That will probably not completely remove it in one pass. Use a putty knife to remove what loosened up and repeat the application and the scraping or wire brushing. Finish it off with muratic acid (1:1 with water). Work the acid around with a stiff poly-bristled brush and be sure to wear rubber gloves and eye protection. Give it a rinse with water afterwards. If that doesn't clean it to your satisfaction, you might consider sandblasting the area to finish it off.

How do you open and clean that little filter thing on the side of your pump on a saltwater pool?

Unplug the wires on the end and twist the end carefully until itis off.We were directed to make a solution in a bucket of muratic acid and water. We continue to swish and dunk the filter until all build-up has been eaten off by the muratic acid/water mixture. Then replace. Green lights should now both be on your salt system!

How do you clean concrete from your windows?

a mild acid is probably the best way. If the window is wrapped in aluminum, use vinegar, straight from the bottle. It may take a few applications but the bubbles indicate that the acid is cutting the minerals in the concrete. If the window ISN'T wrapped in aluminum, you might try a WEAK solution of muratic acid. Mix with water, using about 3 parts water to 1 part muratic acid. When working with murtic acid, make sure you use eye protection (preferrably a face shield), long sleeves, rubber gloves and have water close to wash off any mixture that splashes on your skin. Also, any cloths you wear will be destroyed so pick something that you plan to throw away.
