Muriatic acid can clean drains. However, it's not a good idea to do this because it can also damage them and keep them from functioning properly.
muriatic acid should not cause discolouration to concrete it will eat it away though.
No, Use copper sulfate or root-x depending on what is allowed in your state.
Try a mixture of 75% water, 25% muriatic acid (hardware stores). [wear protective gloves, googles, boots]
Concrete is very hard. To do any good in etching it you need something very strong. Muriatic Acid is the only thing that I have found that works. How strong you mix it depends on the concrete. Some concrete that was poured with a lot of water in the mix will need less Acid. Concrete that is smooth and hard will take more. Muriatic Acid is caustic. Read the direction. Use rubber gloves; safety glasses; and a respirator. For a large project, such as a driveway or Patio. Use a plastic garbage can. Fill with 10 gallons of water. Carefully pour one gallon of Muriatic Acid into the water and mix with a wooden paddle. Take a plastic watering can and fill it with the solution. Wet your concrete with a water hose, then carefully pour the Acid solution onto the concrete. It will bubble and foam. This is the acid etching the concrete. Let it set for about 15 min. Scrub with a stiff push broom, and then rinse with a water hose. The acid will kill plants and grass. Steve Schillinger sds@knology.net = Safety Note = Make sure you put the water in the garbage can first--adding water to acid is a sure way to get splashed with concentrated acid.
Muriatic acid should not be used to clean a leach field. It could harm the soil and drainage system, leading to potential environmental contamination. It's best to consult a professional for proper maintenance and cleaning of a leach field.
Yes
NO!
Muriatic acid can be used to clean dishwashers. Muriatic acid is very strong and should only be used occasionally for cleaning the dishwasher.
Give it a week, and make sure you dilute the muriatic acid.
Yes, muriatic acid can be used to clean old tubs. It is a strong acid that can help remove mineral deposits, soap scum, and grime from the surface of the tub. However, it is important to use it with caution as it can be harsh and may require proper ventilation and protective gear.
You can use muriatic acid to clean or etch aluminum. Do not let it set too long or it will eat through. Use caution since muriatic acid is very caustic.
YES
no
To clean concrete among other uses
Extremely carefully. Muriatic (hydrochloric) acid is not something you should be messing around with if you don't know how to handle it safely.
I would not recommend using Muriatic Acid. It is far to strong for this use. Purchase a good industrial carburetor cleaner.
