I think you have things a little screwed up.
I think that you (if you actually do) purchase muriatic acid, which is
actually
about 27% (30 Baume) hydrochloric acid from your
pool supply store, or local building supply or super market, and you
most likely purchase hydrogen PEROXIDE
(about 2 or 3 %) from your local drug/variety store.
Wow! this thread gets more silly as it progresses.
