Septic Systems
PROPER USE FOR SEPTIC SYSTEMS: We do not recommend pouring ACID Magic directly into
a septic system. ACID Magic has a very low pH that is not ideal for bacteria in a septic system.
Use at your own risk. However, after speaking to septic system companies and lab testing, the
following are our suggestions:
READ INSTRUCTIONS IN THEIR
ENTIRETY BEFORE PROCEEDING.
PRECAUTIONS:
• While using ACID Magic, protective eyewear and
gloves are always required.
• Active ventilation is required when working indoors.
• When diluting, ALWAYS add the ACID Magic
to water, NOT water to the ACID Magic. This
eliminates the potential of an unwanted reaction
that may cause dangerous splashing to occur.
• Do not apply to dry surfaces. Always wet surface
prior to application, including any adjoining areas, in
case of accidental spillage or overspray.
• Do not allow the surface to dry with ACID Magic
solution on it.
• Use caution when applying ACID Magic to avoid
contact with other surfaces, such as wood or metal,
as an unwanted reaction and discoloration of surfaces
could occur.
PROPER USE FOR SEPTIC SYSTEMS:
Septic system companies recommend minimizing the
amount of chemicals that you put down your drains. They
even suggest spraying chemicals on surfaces to minimize
how much you use. As ACID Magic is used, the chemicals
that go to work are spent in the process and by the time
it reaches the septic system, it is diluted along with the
water used to do the job. More of the product’s chemicals
are used to clean PVC drains, further minimizing the
amount of chemicals that actually reach the septic
system. The best way to use ACID Magic for your toilet
and to minimize its presence in a septic system:
DIRECTIONS:
• Do not drain your toilet.
• Pour ACID Magic on a sponge (approximately
2 ounces) and wipe directly on the toilet walls.
• Let dwell for 3 to 5 minutes or longer depending on
the stain.
• Use a brush to scrub around the edges and where
staining occurs.
• Once the stain has been removed, neutralize the
solution.
For your safety, wear chemical resistant gloves and
eye protection. You may wish to contact your local
septic system company for further information.

NEUTRALIZING THE SOLUTION:
• Add three teaspoons (approximately 45 grams) of
baking soda, one teaspoon at a time, to the toilet bowl.
• Use a brush to stir the solution after each additional
teaspoon of baking soda.
• After adding the total amount of baking soda, flush
the solution down the drain.
• Flush once more.
• Make sure to use plenty of water after using ACID Magic.
