    Appreciate that. I was about to start looking into making my own, and you popped up in my algorithm. Lol
    Funny how that works.

    I’ve made some myself. It works just a lot slower. Not sure if it’s the hydrogen peroxide percentage or what, but something causes it to work slower. Nonetheless it does work. I bought some to use after a while. But thought about making more and mixing the two together to see how it does.

    Loved the vid but would like to add one thing muritac acid alone will rust everything in your shop. Learned that from a friend who did it.

    Sounds safer to buy. To do chemical work, you need chemical tools, such as fume hoods.

    Where do you get the steel wool?

  • @Enigma-Sapiens
    @Enigma-Sapiens 2 года назад +1

    Another video I watched said to keep putting in steel wool until the Muriatic acid would not dissolve any more of the steel wool. They also did not use any peroxide. They just let it sit for 2-3 days until it turned into ferric chloride.
    Is the peroxide used to just speed up the changeover or why is it needed?

    • @CGSmithing
      @CGSmithing  2 года назад +2

      From what i understand the peroxide oxidizes the steel faster. Just muriatic acid gives a grey etch but with the peroxide it goes black... as for the science behind it i cant give my 2 cents lol

    Its always how to make acid never how to dispose of it, I have been dumping baking soda into a bubbling vat for hours
