Hard to say. Depends on the type of bluestone you have. Bluestone can be slate, sandstone, some basalts, limestone and dolomite. Limestone and dolomite react with HCL so it could possibly etch a little in the concentration is high enough. some sandstone can also have calcite cement in them that may do the same. I do not believe it will discolor your stone. sometimes bluestones are rich in iron and can bleed a bit turning a browner color from oxidation

Will Muriatic Acid harm vinyl siding?

It is not 100 percent certain whether or not muriatic acid will harm vinyl siding. Some people have used it without problems, others have said it messed up the finish.


Muriatic acid take off the finish of the tile?

Muractic acid available in most commercial retail outlets typically runs 30+ or - % Hydrochloric Acid content. Nasty stuff and generally speaking it will at the very least etch the surface and take the satin or glazed finish "OFF" a tile. My company just finished litigation with one of our clients that used a proprietary method of ours to test a surface for waterproofing of a surface after applying our waterproofing product. We call for a water and acid test on surfaces to qualify for our 15 year warranty for waterproofing. This guy instructed his in house maintenance personnel to perform these test after looking at our web site, "without our knowledge or permission" and not only ruined thousands of sq. ft. of tile, but also had OSHA involved. Big Mess! Don't know what your trying to do, but Muriatic is Bad Stuff in the wrong hands and we don't even recommend it's use for " Acid Etching of Concrete", that used to be a standard for coating applications, "Back in The Day" That's why it has the skull & crossbones on it!

Can you use a hair dryer to help dry polyurethane?

You should probably try it on a small piece first and see how well it works; it seems possible that using a hair dryer could cloud or even discolor the finish, which may or may not matter in your particular application.

How do you prepare and stain an existing interior concrete floor?

Apply muriatic acid to dry surface (good ventilation a must). This removes stains and oils. (Note: if you plan on using an acid stain, DO NOT clean with muriatic acid, since this will make acid staining impossible). Rinse and dry. Apply sodium hydroxide (10% solution) to neutralize remaining acid. Rinse and dry. Ready for your choice of floor treatment. Recommend a urethane sealant first, to prevent moisture absorbed in concrete from coming up under the coating you finish with.
