In the instructions it says to soak in water and dechlorinator after bleach. I have two different conditioners that remove chlorine, would either of these work?

Thanks

I wouldn't use anything but prime, i leave it in a heavy prime bath for 4 days, bleach makes me nervous at that concentration, after the bleach soak I rinse and shake with warm water a few times than prime soak.

I was just reading the purigen bottle at the store, I think it warned against using anything with slime coat helpers.

I don't know if prime has those. But for the money I would get a bottle of plain dechlorinator with no other ingredients in it, and use a huge dose of that. Plain plain dechlorinator is cheap.

And effective. I use it often after heavy bleach use. Even put it in the laundry once to get rid of the smell after bleaching :)

Prime is perfectly fine, wouldn't dream if using anything else..

I use prime when recharging my Purigen as well. I was very paranoid about the bleach but after excessive rinsing/prime baths, I've yet to see an issue after about a year.
