The only MA in my local HD is 14.5%. In order to get 31.45%, I have to buy it at Lowes in the masonry cleaning section, as the local Lowes also only carry 14.5% pool MA.
Anzura, you have the same problem as me... a pool that consumes a LOT of MA. I also have a new gunite pool with a SWG. Note that both a new (concrete/gunite) pool and a SWG increase a pool's demand for MA.
Our pools are almost identical on the specs - 19K gal, SWG, Pebble Tec vs Pebble Sheen.
After waiting the month for my pool to initially cure, I fired up the SWG and was using ~1 gallon of 31.5% MA per week for several months. I am now using ~1/2 gallon of 31.45% MA every week.
My pool is also covered most of the time (light brown autocover) so I'm not consuming a bunch of chlorine during the day so I don't need to run the SWG too much. Again, the SWG increases pH so you need to keep that in mind.
If you keep the cover on your pool, that will actually help keep your pH lower because your pool won't be able to outgas as much CO2 (CO2 lowers pH). If it's not clear, it may also keep your pool from consuming a lot of chlorine.
You should probably post your complete water chemistry numbers so that people smarter than me can make specific recommendations to you.
As a comparison, here are my numbers from yesterday:
TC: 4
FC: 3
pH: 7.5
TA: 70
CH: 340
CYA: 55 (this is considered low for a SWG pool but since I have a cover, I'm OK with it being low)
Borates: 40
Salt level: 3500
Temperature: 72F
This gives me a CSI of -.47 but since the pH rises so quickly and the water is warming, the CSI will move close to zero by the time I add more MA.
If you haven't added borates to your pool, you may want to consider that. My understanding is that it helps stabilize the pH. It also makes the pool water look awesomely sparkly. I bought boric acid over the internet from dudadiesel.com, based on lowest priced/another TFP user's recommendation. You can also use 20 mule team borax.
Full disclosure on borates - if you have a pet that drinks a lot of pool water, you may want to be careful.

Your TA sounds high for a SWG pool. 60-80 should be your target TA. Adding more MA will help lower your TA.
But the bottom line is that your pool will consume additional MA until the pool is fully cured which can take up to a year. And you will always use more MA than non-SWG pools due to having a SWG.
