Where can I buy some dilute acetic acid from?


I've bought some Peelaway from the internet
to remove paint from plaster mouldings,
it's made of Sodium Hydroxide, an alkali
and it says i need dilute acetic acid to wash down afterwards.
The kit even includes Litmus paper to check its been neutralised!


I think its vinegar but that would stain the plasterwork wouldnt it?


Clear vinegar? Look for non brewed condiment on the bottle. Probably the
cheapest one on sale in the supermarket.
