Dear Dennis, Just forget the nitric acid. This is so strong it fumes
when you take the lid off the bottle and it is hard to get because it is
so dangerous. If you do find some,, dilute it by adding it to water (it
is heavy and will sink at first), not adding water to it, as the boil up
will be dangerous. Also, do it outside with plenty of ventilation, and
near water so you can wash the outside of the bottles off after putting
the lids back on and can wash up any spills. IT IS DANGEROUS. Jean
