    What might work faster is if you soak in a bleach solution. I dont know much about it, but you can google it for yourself. Might end up being faster for you than having to wait a couple months. Good luck though!

    You could do what I just did to about 60# of rock and use a muratic acid to clean that puppy right up. Acid bath, pull baking soda bath, ro bath for few days water changed daily
    and your all set it will also open up the rock s pores that are calcium clogged as well.
