Muractic acid available in most commercial retail outlets typically runs 30+ or - % Hydrochloric Acid content. Nasty stuff and generally speaking it will at the very least etch the surface and take the satin or glazed finish "OFF" a tile. My company just finished litigation with one of our clients that used a proprietary method of ours to test a surface for waterproofing of a surface after applying our waterproofing product. We call for a water and acid test on surfaces to qualify for our 15 year warranty for waterproofing. This guy instructed his in house maintenance personnel to perform these test after looking at our web site, "without our knowledge or permission" and not only ruined thousands of sq. ft. of tile, but also had OSHA involved. Big Mess! Don't know what your trying to do, but Muriatic is Bad Stuff in the wrong hands and we don't even recommend it's use for " Acid Etching of Concrete", that used to be a standard for coating applications, "Back in The Day" That's why it has the skull & crossbones on it!
