Randy's DIY Two Part

[Rickyrooz]

Hello all,
I cannot find ESV B-Ionic anywhere online and I am planning to go back to Randy's DIY Two Part. I found a 99% pure source of calcium chloride and 99+% pure source of sodium carbonate.

Calcium MSDS

Soda Ash MSDS
https://www.loudwolf.com/storefront/index.php?route=product/product&path=752&product_id=2655

If I use these as my source, how should I adjust my daily dosing versus the original DIY mix as this will be a more concentrated/pure form?

It is "probably" anhydrous calcium chloride, but I'm not 100% sure these folks are distinguishing calcium chloride from calcium chloride dihydrate. That said, try using 23% less of the calcium salt.

For the sodium carbonate, you use 375 grams instead of the 594 grams of baking soda that you then baked (to produce about 375 grams of the carbonate).
