There is no cheap easy to get alternative, but Muriatic fumes, you
should have a fan pulling the fumes out and get a Vapor certified
Respirator, about 25$ at any hardware store. Muriatic fumes and is
hard on lungs.


This might have potential. Saw it at the pool store today. 10 year
shelf life, won't off-gas and rust things, but I'm not sure about
cheap as I have not checked a price.

I watched the video in the store. See it he

"The Magic Egg™ demonstration video shows how effective ACID Magic is
by dissolving the shell of an egg without harming the egg protein yolk
or the hand holding it. "

Check out the uses: 90% less fumes so they say.
