dip it in muriatic acid, it will start rusting real soon.

I've heard good things about muriatic acid too. What is the process involved with that? Keep the hardware in it for a few days, or just dip real quick and let it air dry?

Also do you know where it is sold?

Thanks,
Dave

A few seconds is more like it. In a few days the part would be gone!! Muratic might be a bit much, plus you'll get yellowing you might not like. Probably need to experiment with a weaker solution than what you find at the pool supply store or hardware.
