Cleans gunk off shower stalls, easily
- It makes cleaning old shower stalls a breeze. But you have to be careful and wear gloves of course. Also, open a window before you start using it so you have proper ventilation. Now there's no need to try to endlessly scrub away stubborn gunk. Muriatic acid is the way to go when you have tough cleaning jobs.

Are You Kidding?
- Seriously? I wouldn't have that chemical in my house or my garage! It's too dangerous. What if a kid or a pet spilled it or something. There have to be better chemicals to use than acid.

Concrete Cleaner
- I use muriatic acid to clean the yuck off of concrete. It's also good to prep it for a sealant or other treatment.
