Approx. 5 to 15 minutes. Or enough time for the circulation system to disperse the chlorine. Or you could add it to the opposite side of the pool. Remember not to add the acid to closely to the skimmer or main drain.

How long does it take to kill a 10 ft tree with muriatic acid?

The time it takes to kill a 10-foot tree with muriatic acid can vary based on the tree species and the method of application. Generally, applying muriatic acid directly to the tree's cut stumps or bark can lead to visible effects within a few days to a few weeks. However, complete tree death may take several weeks to months, depending on the tree's health and environmental conditions. It's important to use caution, as muriatic acid is a highly corrosive substance and can harm surrounding plants and soil.

Can you use muriatic acid to clean fiberglass boat hull?

The answer: YES. Muriatic acid is the best solution for cleaning scum off of fiberglass hulls. Forget expensive hull cleaner or any other "marine" product that claims to remove. Muriatic acid removes all scum/discoloration without any effect to the gel coat for about $6/gallon. Get a garden/lawn sprayer, an open area (for venalation), long pants/shirt that you don't care about, rubber gloves & goggles. The Muriatic acid will do the work, only light scrubbing may be necessary as the chemical dissolves the scum itself. Once the acid has sat for 5-10 mins, spray with water and then wash with a mild soap. In the end, you will have a brand new looking hull. Remember to wax after to protect in the future.One word of caution is that the Muriatic acid fumes are very powerful. Be sure to be in a well venalated area and wear a painters venalator mask if necessary.Enjoy your brand new looking hull!


How long do you have to wait to swim after putting muratic assid in it?

After adding muriatic acid to your pool, you should wait at least 30 minutes to an hour before swimming. This allows the acid to properly dilute and disperse throughout the water, ensuring that the pH levels stabilize. Always check the water's pH level before swimming to ensure it is within the safe range (typically between 7.2 and 7.8).
