Beware - CRS strips worktops and is a good hand cleaner!

[markp]

A friendly warning to everyone, especially the inexperienced.

I received my latest parcel of brewing goodies today and a bottle of CRS had broken in transit.
As a bit of a newbie to AG I don't really know what the contituent(s) of CRS is or are; but I can you it has left some lovely etchings on my wooden kitchen worktop
On the plus side, my hands are nice and clean :grin:

I left some on a ss spoon once and it left a white acid burn of some kind on the it!

I have two CRS bottle sized rings on my worksurface in the kitchen - told the Mrs i have no idea what it is........said it must have been her nailvarnish remover or something :?

CRS is a mixture of Hydrochloric and Sulphuric acids . . . it is not something you really want spread over worktops, or ideally using as hand cleaner . . . while not concentrated it is more than adequate to do some serious damage. . . . Peracetic is worse however :whistle:
