You can probably find some at a hardware store. I know you can get sulfuric acid from pipe/drain cleaners.

Nope, go to a pool supply store such as Leslie Pools. Had to get this stuff over the summer.

Yes Home Depot will certainly have it...

Don't look in plumbing, look in the ceramic tile area. Muriatic Acid is the same a Hydrochloric Acid. It's used to remove cement haze & grout from finished tile. Also etches garage floors to accept epoxy, etc. You can buy a 1 gallon jug for about $8. If Home Depot is out, try Lowe's.

Trust me, I've used my fair share of it removing haze from 1-man tiling jobs...
