I guess the Good Lord protects fools, because I am still alive. I had some Aluminum parts I needed to clean, and had read that muriatic acid would do the job. Placed the parts in a container in the back of my shed, THINKING it would need to soak for a day or so. WELL, the reaction was EXTREMELY violent, rapidly frothing over the container and with CLOUDS of "smoke" that drove me from the shed.
I managed to get it under control, and poured several pounds of BAKING SODA on the resulting mess.
IT has quit foaming, and SEEMS inert, BUT WHAT DO I HAVE NOW THAT I HAVE MIXED MURIATIC ACID AND BAKING SODA?????
