How long does it take to clean a coffee can full of nuts and bolts in a blast cabinet? How tedious is it to get the inside of the nuts?
I kind of like the idea of having the chemicals do the work so that I don't have to. If there is a cheap, safer acid than muriatic acid which does the same job, I would rather go that way.
Lazy.
Inpatient.
And a cheapskate.
