  • What is up my rock loving friends!! Tonight’s video is going to be a WILD one! If you couldn’t already tell from the title or thumbnail, I gave my rocks some acid, meaning I gave them a bath in muriatic acid, and I wasn’t kidding when I said you won’t believe their reactions!
    Muriatic acid is a diluted form of hydrocloric acid, and safe to use (when done so properly) to clean and melt different minerals from your rocks! Today I’m mainly targeting calcite and calcium related deposits on and in some of the agates and geodes I found down in Kentucky! This is a longer video, but it is well worth the wait to see those end results!
    I will be creating a shorter version of this video with the do’s and dont’s of cleaning your rocks/agates/geodes with muriatic acid! So if you’d like to see that, be sure you’re subscribed and click that bell notification and set it to all!!
    If you are new to the channel, and this crazy video brought you here, I’d like to say welcome! 🔥😎 kick your feet up, grab a drink and get ready to see some crazy shiznitz this spring and summer!

    That was a totally awesome video! The results were absolutely spectacular! No wondering if it did anything or not. It absolutely did, and the look amazing! I think the one with the fortifications was my favorite but the botryoidal chalcedony ones were a very close second and the smokies were third! its so hard to pick because they all turned out fantastic! Great job tyler!

  • @rosameryrojas-delcerro1059

    I’d go with the stuff from Home Depot in the pool section. The green strip acid is pretty week and diluted from my experience. Closer to about 20% vs 31% with the pool muriatic acid from Home Depot or hardware store. Great vid bro. Thanks!

I mean it definitely cleans the rocks up but I can’t seem to keep the orange/yellow stains from appearing once they’ve dried. And that’s after the long soak in baking soda/water.

    The unsteadiness and small size of the table holding the acid make me nervous. I'd want to make sure that the table I was using was sturdier and much larger than the actual container of acid so that the container wasn't so close to the edge of the table and less likely to be knocked off.

    Great example of when a powerful acid meets a powerful alkali.. Reverse Osmosis removes the alkalinity present in water within the rock, but not the carbon dioxide which comprises calcium carbonate, or calcite.. better known to the layman as the antacid, "Tums" .. I, as with all sciences, love geology, but chemistry. It's cool also..
