cwenbass 14 Report post Posted April 23, 2013 Planning on doing a few family homes. I have some simple cherry and a problem finding 12.5% SH. Using an xjet and a bucket. Does 3 gallons 6% 2 cups of simple cherry and 3 gallons water sound good? Should I try finding 12.5, add another gallon of 6%? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thad 135 Report post Posted April 23, 2013 Use 4 gallons of 6%. Mix your Simple Cherry thoroughly in one gallon of water and add that to your bleach. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jon Bennett 14 Report post Posted April 29, 2013 Sorry, let me say that again..they only sell powdered SHOCK. They can get liquid 12.5 if you want to pay an arm and a leg for the SH not to mention shipping. I picked up a bunch of 10.5% from a local farm and ranch store for .88 a gallon. Not 12.5, but it seems to do the trick. Jon Bennett Bennett Exterior Maize, KS Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
