Muriatic Acid takes many forms and levels of strength, from its most dilute form which was formulated with other substances and used to neutralize the PH of the eyes, to its strongest form which is used to clean metals for soldering and brazing.  You can clean bricks, and/or treat swimming pools with muriatic acid, but when diluting you MUST ALWAYS add the acid to the water.  Adding water to  acid will create a violent reaction which is very dangerous.  A dilute mixture of muriatic acid will very effectively remove lime deposits but it is not an instant fix and is used in too strong of a solution will also etch the finish on the plumbing fixtures.  It works but you must use caution.  Just remember for an aw experience AW acid to water, but if you want to start a WAR add water to acid.

I would not use something as caustic as muratic acid.   The tub will be more suseptical to stains than ever since  there is nothing to protect the finish.
