I use the Rustoleum Professional garage floor epoxy kit (the acetone based stuff, not the water based one). It didn't come with any cleaner or acid, just the two part epoxy mixture.

I used Behr concrete cleaner/degreaser on my first washing, then Behr concrete etcher and rust remover on the second pass. The etcher is phosphoric acid. I wanted muriatic acid, but you can't even buy that stuff in NV anymore I guess. Stupid EPA.
