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.

The burn rate of muriatic acid, also known as hydrochloric acid, depends on the concentration of the acid and the contact duration with the skin or other materials. It is a strong acid that can cause chemical burns upon contact, so it is important to handle it with care and use appropriate safety precautions. If exposed, immediate action should be taken to wash off the acid and seek medical attention if necessary.
