Default Stripping Gun Blue & Black Oxide

What is the best way (chemical) to remove an existing gun blue, or black oxide finish on a soft carbon steel base, without altering the base itself?

Default acid

Is muratic the same as muriatic (pool supply) acid? What concentration (ratio) should be used?
