Can't you use vinegar, that's what I've done in the past & works great . Safer to handle.
Any advantage to the acid ?

Acid completely removes the outer layer of rock. Recommended bath time is less than 30 mins, depending on your rocks density. If you leave it too long you won't have any rock left.

Vinegar just cleans the surface. So boring.

Just keep in mind that if you buy over $100 of the stuff, they're going to request and take records of an ID. Makes it SUCH A PAIN to hide your tracks after the matter.

Good to know. You can do multiple transaction and go to different stores if you want to hide your tracks. And pay only under the limit
