    You could go down to a 10:1 dilution on the muriatic. That would be 2%.

    Sorry, I meant that vinegar is 5% acetic acid. That's what I get for doing posts when I'm tired.

    Always do acid into water correct or was it the other way around? Muriatic we use is fairly benign but I had to dilute some stronger stuff in the past and for the life of me can't remember which was the safe way so it doesn't boil and fume.
