Rowaphos and GFO strip water at different rates I'll try to find something to back this up, but GFO strips water faster And there are reports that Rowa may leach back to the system when GFO does not GFO is a much cheaper route in the longterm and does the job better than Rowa when you calculate dollars ... |

gfo = repacked bulk = less $ rowaphos is GFO, base material maybe slight different. but rust is rust.

I've bought GFO that was black and treated me just fine I've bought GFO that was brown that was terrible to rinse and used up 'way' too much water to rinse I can't say anything about ROWA, but as I said, I'll find info it I need to back up what I said Regardless, I prefer HC GFO as it's the easiest to deal with It's clean enough that it doesn't need much rinsing, and the price is reasonable |
