Signature Home Bleach Regular Scent

[Cindy_H]

I stared at the bleach section for a long time trying to find any "pure" bleach at my regular Vons/Safeway grocery store. All of the Chlorox brand had "Chloromax" so I assume none are good.

The generic Safeway bleach "Signature Home Bleach Regular Scent" didn't list the ingredients that I could find so I tried to look it up.

All I could find in terms of product info was this MSDS -
http://www.kellysolutions.com/erenewals/documentsubmit/KellyData%5COK%5Cpesticide%5CMSDS%5C70271%5C70271-24%5C70271-24_Signature_Home_Bleach_Concentrated___Regular_Scent_10_8_2015_12_14_41_PM.pdf

I was happy to see that the only ingredients on the MSDS are these

Chemical Name	Concentration %	CAS No.	Worker Exposure Limit
Sodium Hypochlorite	6% - 9%	7681-52-9	5800 mg/kg / >10500
Sodium Hydroxide	<1.00%	7647-01-0

But I'm left wondering
1) are all ingredients listed on the MSDS
2) is this the Safeway brand just make by KIK custom products.

I'll look for dates when I go back. Anyone ever use it?

Thanks,
Cindy

Retail, consumer grade bleach is all the same - sodium hypochlorite, sodium hydroxide (lye), sodium chloride (salt) and water. The lye and salt come from the manufacturing process. KIK makes bleach for almost all brands of bleach. As long as it’s not scented or splashless and the date code shows it’s fresh, then it’s fine to use.

I’m not convinced CloroMax is necessarily a problem for swimming pools, but I need to do more research on it to know for sure.

All I use is Safeway Signature Home Bleach.
