All depends on how fast you want it clean. If you're really in a hurry, get muriatic acid instead.

Acid washing all vinegar is a must if you want to do it properly.

This works awesome. But remember, add the muriatic acid to the water not water to the acid. And do outdoors. Way better than vinegar

Vinegar works awesome...is cheap and far less caustic.

Plus,. you can get vinegar at any grocery store...for acid, you would need to go to a hardware store.
