Default removing chrome from brass

Hi:
I like to heat my muratic/hydrocloric (same thing)acid and water up to about 170 deg F. I use about 25% muratic to 75% water. ADD THE ACID TO THE WATER>>>>DONT ADD THE WATER TO THE ACID!!!Once I have degreased the part, I immerse it in the acid and it almost instantly fizzes, turns black and then the chrome is gone!
