RPetry 564 Report post Posted April 14, 2006 As a fledgeling bleach baby of the BDA (Bleach Dwellers Association), a newly formed splinter group of woodies, could use some help. Obviously, to use in any quantity and save $, you can't go to the local SuperFresh (regional grocery store) and unload the shelves of Clorox. Not that Clorox doesn't work well, but its just at 6% and the garbage man is likely to turn your trash over to the EPA. One thing I read about Clorox, and is noted on the label, is that a small amount of sodium hydoxide, our old friend, is added to get the pH to 8, which is apparently the most effective for I'm not sure. Maybe cleaning clothes. Stopped by the local pool suppy house this afternoon. Their sodium hypochlorite was 15%, with a pH of 10. Anyone know what I should be looking for? Wood only, with the bleach mix only used for cleaning on existing Ready Seal decks due for more oil. Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
