What on earth is in that stuff. It don't half pong. reminds me of ydrochloic acid from my school days, and that was a long time ago. The guys building the wall and fence used it to clean the droppings of cement etc, off the slabs.



Be a good crowd control system I'd imagine. Brian

Brick cleaner = hydrochloric acid.

One safety article, suggests to wear a respirator while working with the stuff. It's not intended for bystanders to be inhaling it.

The lining of your lungs, makes a poor chemistry bench :-)

Being brickies, I'm sure they took precautions.

Yes but that won't keep the footways clean as well. The worst smells are rotting fish or dead rats. You say it has a bite to it, I bet it would burn a hole in your clothes I know battery acid can if its out. Brian

Well, I could not say, of course, but I doubt it in the open air.

Battery acid is suphuric acid.
