Richard, THAT is a name from the past. I haven't spoken with him in several years now (since he reformed his company to produce enzymes and phospahte removers)!
That would make his product similar to Natural Chemistry's Pool Perfect + PHOSfree
The ones I've heard about others using are the same as Evan mentions from Natural Chemistry:
Pool Perfect™
Pool First Aid™ - seems to be the same as above, but stronger in strength
I had orenda™ technologies CV700 put in my pool once when the owner was out in my area and we did some experiments. There wasn't much to clear up, but it did seem to take care of some leftover suntan lotion film on the surface rather quickly, but the product also has a small amount of phosphate remover (lanthanum chloride) as well so isn't an enzyme-only product.

Bleah. I'm glad to see that I am not the only crazy person who has ended up with this stuff in the pool. That's what I get for allowing hubby to take care of the pool for me this week.
I bought Clorox splash proof at SAMs club. It has put a thin layer of foam on top. Due to mechanical problems, I just got the pool uncovered this morning and had 15 bottles of the stuff ready to go in, so it's in. Pool had a lot of green and mustard algae in, but not as much as I thought it would, opening it up so late.
Since the chorine already dropped to less than 5ppm, I just put in some plain old bleach and added cya. It's starting to turn blue, but I will need more bleach by tomorrow.
Stay away from the "splash proof" Clorox, it will foam on you.
Yep. That's why we say "PLAIN 6% household bleach".
Actually, the detergency may have helped in your case, since it probably improved dispersion of the biofilm (mustard algae).
Detergency? Is that even a word?![]()

When I bought it, I didn't read the new thicker part on the label. I thought they had redesigned the bottle. Today I will be skimming foam off the top of the water, it's not going away.
I guess I never heard it before and didn't bother to look it up. I thought maybe Ben was just making up words again!
