LA's Totally Awesome Bleach

True, but in the interest of full disclosure, i am the only one who seems to get the stronger stuff and i can't find the full cases any more. The individual bottles are not datecoded. At least not the ones I've ever found.

This guy contacted 3E company and found out it's 3%.

Yes, and I also found that there was a second MSDS that listed it at 5.25% so it's not conclusive.

5.25% would be a steal for $1. I wish someone could get to the bottom of this.

The easiest thing to do, would be a buy a gallon. Use pool math to figure out what the expected rise in FC would be and give it a go. Like if half a gallon should give a 3 FC rise and you only get 2 then you can figure it's 2/3 what you estimated in strength.

That's what I did before I got the SWG dialed in. For me, at the time, it was better than 6%. But of course there is an error rate to consider so 5% was probably more realistic. Since getting the SWG worked out I haven't needed to supplement.

I checked Dollar Tree in Rockville, MD and they only have the 96oz. If it's 3%, it's not a good deal but if it's 5% or more, then it is

Looks like the 1 gallon can be shipped to the local store for free. Anyone going to try it? The biggest issue is carrying a case to your car

On the subject of "LA's Awesome Bleach" - I can tell you that I spoke with their Corporate Office this afternoon and they informed me that the gallon size (128 oz.) is only 3% Sodium Hypo. Of course, you get what you pay for. At Walmart, their "Great Value" brand bleach at the same size container has 8.25% and it is clearly marked on the package. Their price is approx. $2.74 per gallon. Other "major brands" may contain 9% of the Sodium Hypo but the price for gallon is closer to $5.00 per gallon. Peace
