Acid Lab

Setup, step by step

1. 1Buy the Acid Lab trailer from Dax at the Freakshop after completing the First Dose story missions.
2. 2Run ten Fooligan Jobs for Dax — that unlocks the acid equipment upgrade for free instead of $750,000.
3. 3Set up the lab from the laptop inside the trailer, then resupply (buying supplies costs about $60,000 per batch).
4. 4Call the Brickade from the interaction menu anywhere on the map; you never need to return to the Freakshop to sell.
5. 5Sell a full batch in an Invite Only session — deliveries are short and the whole run is solo-safe.
