I'm not adding anything really … but …… Muriatic acid is simply a dilute
form of Hydrochloric Acid which many printers will have in their
possession
and secondly :
one might consider the store bleach which is less expensive than Clorox™
as it tends to now be a generic name. The reason is that the bleach is
primarily Sodium Hypochlorite and, as I understand it, the cheaper
bleaches do not have added fluorescent brighteners added as does Clorox™
