Are my 50 gallon mixes being calculated correctly?

Mike,

Look up "green wash roof spreadsheet". It is posted on the forum here by Paul Freeman. It has the SH mixes for up 100 gallons for both 10% & 12.5%.

Only SH, no CH mixe,s,.

Thanks Jeff,

I have seen those charts as well as completed the mixology modules. (great stuff) So I understand the SH mixes without the CH or the Bleach accelerator as well as using straight CH. My topic was based off of a previous post that was talking about augmenting and they kept referring to "SoftWash Systems Bleach Accelerator." I want to start augmenting in my business so I am trying to get a grip on this process.

Thanks for the feedback, Your right on track with those charts

Hey Gang, Do these figures make sense? Add 32ozs of Green Wash& 2ozs SoftWash Systems Bleach Accelerator to each 50gal formula (Always Add water first)
1%mixes: a)1gal of SH or 64ozs of CH
2%mixes: a)2gal of SH or 128ozs of CH
b)1gal of SH + 64ozs of CH
3%mixes: a)3gal of SH or 192ozs of CH
b)2gal of SH + 64ozs of CH
c)1gal of SH + 128ozs of CH
4%mixes: a)4gal of SH or 256ozs of CH
b)3gal of SH +64ozs of CH
c)2gal of SH+128ozs of CH
d)1gal of SH +192ozs of CH
Does anyone know where to get the SoftWash system Bleach Accelerator?

Hey there Mike,

If you go to the SWS Home Page, you'll see the hyperlink to the mixology page. Scroll down and you can find the generic augmentation formula for a 100 gallon mix at 3%. Just divide by two to make your 50 gallon mix.

50 Gallons of 3% Augmented Mix:

35 gallons water
10 gallons SH
50 dry oz. CH
64 liq. oz. GW

Not sure how to tweak it to get the other percentages. I'm a fireman, not a mathamatician.

Hey, Thanks Mark

I think i'll go with those formulas. I was trying to figure it out using the pixie dust so i wouldn't have to use so much SH. But I'm strictly using SH now so any amount less is better for me.
