Awesome, thank you for clarifying that. Had a mishap with my 'groon last night, after I covered the steel wool with the vinega, I forgot to loosen the lid to let the fumes/bubbles escape. Pressurized the jar enough to push the lid up & had vinegar all over one of my granite slabs. Wasn't too bad, couple tools don't have a flawless finish anymore, but that's about it.

I've looked at this thread a dozen times or more & I'm finally going through the steps, but I didn't see the mix for the soda bath. Is it 1:1? 2:1? 1Tsp : 1 5gal bucket? Just want to makes sure that I'm stopping the chemical reaction correctly.
