bdmowers Posted August 8, 2016 Report Share Posted August 8, 2016 Anyone actually seen sodio carbonato (sodium carbonate, not sodium BIcarbonate) around town, most likely in a pool supply store? I can`t use sodium bicarbonate. I`m not actually wanting to increase pH in a pool but need washing soda/soda ash for something else entirely. Gracias.

Semalu Posted August 9, 2016 Report Share Posted August 9, 2016 I see no one has an answer yet, no in an attempt to be helpful I saw caustic soda ( Sodium hydroxide or Lye) for sale at the ferreteria next to Technolite in Riberas this morning. I realize this is not what you want, but maybe if they sell that you can also find soda ash in the hardware stores? You can also look for washing soda at Superlake in the laundry detergent section. Failing that, make it? http://naturesnurtureblog.com/ttt-turn-baking-soda-into-washing-soda/ Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Semalu Posted August 9, 2016 Report Share Posted August 9, 2016 Neither did I until I googled it. I am not advocating the method so if you try it, try it in a well ventilated area...just in case :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
