Hi, did first time test of the chlorine levels w/ TF100 kit & curious about “turning clear”. As I added drops eventually solution went from pink to what I’d call a “cloudy” clear, no pink but not crystal/see through clear. After setting 30 sec or so the previously clear sample had a very slight pink tint. Does the amount of drops to turn clear begin the instant the sample clears up or when after sitting several minutes, it remains dead clear, no tint at all? Thanks for any help!
TF-100 kit, what is considered “clear”?

Once it is clear, you are done. Many times it may turn slightly pink again, disregard.
If you're unsure about the pink vs clear you can always add one more drop and see if it changes at all. If it doesn't change, subtract that last drop.

Are you using the Speedstir Magnetic Stirrer ?
Not getting enough swirl and mixing often gives indeterminate results.

Clear as far as testing goes means no color. Clear like a diamond is clear, if not as sparkly. This doesn't apply to CYA, as you're looking for cloudiness, not clear.
I ordered the stir accessory, did t use this time. Will do next check tomorrow & report back.
