The citric acid cleaned up all the rust stains in no time and now my 45 year old pool looks almost like new again! Smooth transaction as they were very helpful online and shipped promptly with no issues at all. This is a top drawer outfit.
I received the citric acid with no delivery problems. I use the product for setting the dye in wool fabrics which I use for my hobby Rug Hooking. Thank you, Diane
