Muriatic Acid
 

Was working with muriatic acid (HCl) and inhaled some fumes inadvertently. Solution was around %30. Symptoms after include shortness of breath and a little coughing. Whats the best and worse case scenarios? Am I gonna die :shock: ?

Unless you have any major respiratory illness i would not worry, i have accidently inhaled fumes from stronger solutions on several occasions and am fine. The odd bit wont harm you.

Turned out everything was ok. Made a cardinal mistake. I was adding the muriatic to a hot tub pump and instead of adding acid to water I did it the other way around and got bombarded with fumes. I have been out of the game for to long, making rookie mistakes :roll: .
