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. Roland F.
