GELLING NITRIC AND HYDROFLUORIC ACID

Let me know how can I thicken solution of Nitric acid 25 % and Hydrofluoric acid 2,5. I would like make gel or paste form with this solution. Please someone explain me how can I do this.

This was partially answered in letter 453.

If I were GM of the Universe, people would need a special license, requiring special training and burn center service, before they could touch hydrofluoric acid. . .
and a 7th level blackbelt in hydrofluoric acid safety before they were allowed to gel it :-)
