[QUOTE="BigWave, post: 271652, member: 6786"] Ali Brite (even at only 5% HF) is not dumbed down and must be treated with respect! Like hydrochloric acid (HCl or brickies acid, also pool pH adjuster), it will remove ironstone, but unlike hydrochloric, the HF in Ali Brite will also slowly attack quartz. Hydrochloric acid is dangerous but not considered carcinogenic - it's the acid in our stomachs after all. Still, must be used with caution. [/QUOTE]
