Yeah, CLR is just the over the counter stuff.

I've known a number of people who used a muriatic solution to clean carbs. Used to be the thing. It was always too aggressive to suit me.

Before anyone else gets confused. CLR removes hard deposits and loosens rust. HOUNDOG removes the dull and applies SHINY. You won't find HOUNDOG at your local Home Depot.image

I'd rather give someone a tool than a solution. Give them an answer and they'll always expect it. Teach them how to find the answers for themselves and they will spend a lifetime learning.
As for my mental state?
