For concentrating HCl though. How do I concentrate beyond 20%

I have been making weak Hcl out of acetic acid and NaCl.
How do I concentrate it. Do I boil down the acetic acid first? I know you can concentrate HCl to ~20% by boiling but how do I know when to stop? Can I strengthen it further?

is it true that acetone and similar can degrade it? what about bleach.

<sorry>
Let me rephrase this. I hear fiberglass is unreactive with acid. Are there any substances that react with it? Strong bases? idk. Plz help.

Hi, I am a noob at chemistry, but have experience blowing stuff up ;D I also run a small YouTube channel called 4k (subscribe plz :)) where I post my explosion projects. Anyway, I have an old fiberglass and aluminum outhouse that I want do destroy for a video series. Any ideas on what would dissolve...
