Give it a week, and make sure you dilute the muriatic acid.
Yes
A dilute solution of hydrochloric acid sold in hardware stores is commonly known as muriatic acid. It is used for cleaning bricks, concrete, and other materials. It is important to handle muriatic acid with care due to its corrosive nature.

Yes, muriatic acid can be used to clean thinset mortar from ceramic tile, but it's important to dilute it properly according to the manufacturer's instructions and to test it on a small inconspicuous area first. It's advisable to wear appropriate protective gear and ensure proper ventilation when working with muriatic acid.
Muriatic Acid it extremely corrosive and highly caustic. To clean glass windows with it, is not recommended. Ammonia, however, does clean windows very effectivly and doesn't leave streak marks.
NO!
Muriatic acid can be used to clean dishwashers. Muriatic acid is very strong and should only be used occasionally for cleaning the dishwasher.
A dilute solution of muriatic acid is used by the pros.
Yes, of course. I found the following archived letter from someone named Don Wilkins that mentions using muriatic acid to clean copper oxide: http://yarchive.net/metal/copper_clean.html By the way, for those who didn't know--like me, until a few moments ago--muriatic acid is just an old-fashioned term for hydrochloric acid. I found that info at Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrochloric_acid
Probably, although I'd test it in a small spot to make sure it doesn't affect the color. (Also obviously, wear gloves, be very careful not to spill it on your skin or get it in your eyes. If you dilute it, pour acid into water, not water into acid.)
Yes, you can use muriatic acid to clean a stone fireplace, but it is important to dilute it with water before application as it is a strong acid. Test a small area first to ensure it does not damage the stone, and be sure to follow safety precautions such as wearing protective gear and working in a well-ventilated area.
