thanks.

[stillanoob]

That is what i did.

[dunluce]

I did it all in one day, no issues that I have found.

Has anyone tried running the vinegar and the sacrificial alcohol runs at the same time?

Any results to report?

This may sound like a stupid idea, however, a mixture of hydrochloric and nitric acid forms a solution known as aqua regia which is more powerful than either acid alone.(I think?)

Maybe there could be some additional benefit from doing this other than just a time savings?

I do all my cleaning runs in one day because once in my early days I let it sit overnight after the vinegar run and had brand new corrosion as a result requiring extra cleaning.

The problem I see with that is I believe the alcohol comes off first then the vinegar defeating the purpose of the sac run.
