To get access to Acid Lab in GTA Online, you need to start doing the First Dose missions. In the sixth and final mission, you are tasked with stealing a Brickade 6x6 truck, which will function as the base of operations for your Acid Lab. Once you complete this story mission, the setup missions for the Acid Lab will begin.

Dax, who is also the one that gives out the First Dose missions, will tell you that there are three different locations you can visit to find the Acid Lab equipment that needs to be attached to the Brickade 6x6. Keep in mind that any one of these locations will work, and you don't need to visit all of them. After doing this, you need to go to the Freakshop and talk to Mutt, who is going to be the one attaching the Acid equipment to the truck.

The costs come up to around $750,000. However, the entire Acid Lab business does not require a large investment, so beginner players should not worry. Moreover, you will be able to make this amount of money just by completing all of the story missions.

The Acid Lab business is now ready to be used. However, to maximize profitability, you should definitely call Dax and ask him about the Fooliganz jobs. These are side missions that will allow you to upgrade the Acid Lab equipment. Once you complete all the missions, you'll make more money when you sell products.

However, just like any other business, you should resort to buying the supplies since doing that is always more profitable. Furthermore, there is also an option to boost acid production that will come in handy.

You need to talk to Mutt to buy supplies for the Acid Lab business. If you feel like closing down the business, there's always an option to pause Acid Production.
