- 2 parts Muriatic acid to 1 part hydrogen peroxide.
Here is how i make my own ferric chloride it is super easy and the yield is more than worth it!!!
Safety First. Wear your PPE!!!
- Eye protection.
- Respiratory protection.
- Gloves.

Super cool! Thank you! Didn't think that's that easy! 👍
I’m definitely going to try this.
Thanks for the info 😁
Appreciate that. I was about to start looking into making my own, and you popped up in my algorithm. Lol
Funny how that works.
They can hear your thoughts lol
Cool pattern
Hello, thanks for sharing! :)
I’ve made some myself. It works just a lot slower. Not sure if it’s the hydrogen peroxide percentage or what, but something causes it to work slower. Nonetheless it does work. I bought some to use after a while. But thought about making more and mixing the two together to see how it does.
..ok, now. after the steel wool, nails and bailing wire, how many snowflakes?? i may have to wait till next year, or, take a trip way up North. Thanks got this one saved, for future reference...
I've been trying to figure out how to make acid for a Damascus blade I've been working on.
Where do you get the steel wool?
Sounds safer to buy. To do chemical work, you need chemical tools, such as fume hoods.
Thank you for the video!!!! 🙂
You are very welcome!!!
@@CGSmithing is it good for bringing out hamone patterns? I'm just starting to bladesmith.
@@christobaliancantu7112 most definitely
@@CGSmithing freaking sweet! I'm gonna make some ferric chloride tomorrow morning 😆 thank you again again!
@@CGSmithing sorry for bothering again. But when you make a hamone do you etch it first and then temper or vice versa?
Loved the vid but would like to add one thing muritac acid alone will rust everything in your shop. Learned that from a friend who did it.
This is true too!!!
I have 34° baumé hydrochloric acid, what is the percentage of it??? With the temperature =25°C.
Oh crap- i wondered why all my stuff has been rusting.. :O
Another video I watched said to keep putting in steel wool until the Muriatic acid would not dissolve any more of the steel wool. They also did not use any peroxide. They just let it sit for 2-3 days until it turned into ferric chloride.
Is the peroxide used to just speed up the changeover or why is it needed?
From what i understand the peroxide oxidizes the steel faster. Just muriatic acid gives a grey etch but with the peroxide it goes black... as for the science behind it i cant give my 2 cents lol
@@CGSmithing, Ok, thank you!
Its always how to make acid never how to dispose of it, I have been dumping baking soda into a bubbling vat for hours
