![]() don't take any risks. use gloves and a respirator if possible and eye protection. I have seen acid eat through a metal ladder so its not so nice on the skin. I have also got fumes in the air and its not so present to the lungs

![]() Thanks for all the info and safety tips!
I'll be doing this outdoors and will get rubber sleeve gloves and eye wear. My change of plans from all your words of caution are: Wear clothes that are ok to get wrecked in case. And to have the baking soda already open... Last thing I'd want to do is fumble around with the box if I'm in an emergency situation. Thanks again everyone!

Should I have a powered in there to circulate the acid bath?

![]() so also I add soda ash at work to neutralize acid and it bubbles and spits and overflows and baking soda and bicarb will do similar things so be careful with that also.
