I’m guessing lemon juice. It’s corrosive and if left on a stainless steel surface for a longer time, especially in sunlight, it can cause stains and discoloring.
Yea I can’t find anything. I see something about elon posting tweets while on acid; another of tesla dumping bunches of chemicals into river ways in austin and other places when searching for tesla & acid lol
Typically not an acid, but a fluoride salt, since acids containing the fluoride ion are very dangerous (I’ve got a reminder of it on my leg, splashed some stainless weld cleaner on my trousers without noticing at first. Goes bad extremely fast, heals extremely slow. Affected areas should be immediately flushed with water, and possibly followed up with soda water.)
I would guess it’s potassium bifluoride or ammonium bifluoride. Or if really acid, then hexafluorosilicic acid.
I wonder if there’s a point. Dropping gravel from a drone would likely achieve the same effect, and gravel is literally dirt cheap - you don’t have to buy it, you can collect it from a roadside.
I assume the best way to be “hard to catch” if using acid would be the most generic easy to get acid… muriatic acid from home depot / lowes right? (hydrochloric acid) It does mess up stainless steel but not sure what they’re doing with the acids in balloons, which is why it doesn’t seem real lol. all seems kinda silly
What kind of acid?

I want to know as well, because that could make it very dangerous.
I get the feeling that acid was just added to the reports to shift public opinion

My bet would be that it’s glass etchant.
