Added gentle spa per instructions 4oz per 150 gallons. So for me 12 oz for 460 gallons. I had dropped TA to 60 and PH had stayed at 7.4 for more than 24 hours with multiple uses. Tested PH an hour or so after gentle spa and ph was 8.2, possibly higher. States PH neutral, ha
1. Is this normal?
2. Do I need to use MA now or do I need to give it some time and recheck ph later?
Thank you
 
You will need to use MA-
granular boric acid is recommended for adding borates as it has little effect on ph & ta.

I add granola boric acid; it's cheap and seems to stabilize my PH well. Adding a SWCG seems to help with keeping PH locked in too.

For Muriatic Acid.......I use Acid Magic; it's a little more expensive but safer to use from a spill, fumes, etc.
