Magidal Plus is a chemical product that is used for the treatment of alkaline aqueous oil invert mud systems. It is specifically designed to maintain the pH balance of the drilling fluid within a desired range, typically around 10.5 to 12.5. Alkaline aqueous oil invert mud systems are commonly used in drilling operations to reduce the potential for formation damage and improve wellbore stability. However, these systems can be sensitive to changes in pH, which can affect their performance and effectiveness.
Hopeful for this product but it did not work. My pH is maybe 0.1 – 0.2 lower but certainly not the results I was expecting for the price. I had to buy three bags for my acre of land, what a waste of money!
You ve probably heard landscapers talking about the importance of a neutral soil, or perhaps the horror stories from neighbors about how their acidic lawn destroyed their grass. Application Information MAG-I-CAL PLUS Soil Food for Lawns in Alkaline Hard Soil is best applied during the growing season when the soil is not frozen.
However, these systems can be sensitive to changes in pH, which can affect their performance and effectiveness. Magidal Plus works by acting as a buffering agent, helping to stabilize the pH of the drilling fluid. It reacts with acid-producing substances in the mud system and helps to control the formation of acidity.

Product Description:
Jonathan Green Mag-I-Cal Plus for Lawns in Alkaline & Hard Soil contains sulfur and calcium sulfate dihydrate which lowers soil pH, is important to cell development, and is vital to many grass plant functions. Poor soil that is hard and compacted is often the problem when it comes to growing a great lawn.
When soil is too alkaline and compacted, air, water and nutrients cannot get down to the roots, and the grass will not grow properly. Lawns thrive in slightly acidic to neutral soil with pH levels between 6.2 and 7.0. In soils with pH readings of 7.0 to 9.5, weeds thrive and the grass becomes light green and spindly. Additionally, Mag-I-Cal Plus helps to break up clay and compacted soils. This improves root penetration and promotes growth by increasing biological activity and releasing nutrients trapped in the soil.
Please Note: This is the product we carry that will help to lower your pH. We have a similar product from Jonathan Green that will raise pH.
Application Information:
MAG-I-CAL PLUS Soil Food for Lawns in Alkaline & Hard Soil is best applied during the growing season when the soil is not frozen.

By maintaining the proper pH balance, Magidal Plus helps to prevent the corrosion of equipment and materials, improves drilling efficiency, and prolongs the life of the drilling fluid. In addition to its pH stabilizing properties, Magidal Plus also has other benefits for alkaline aqueous oil invert mud systems. It enhances the emulsifying and lubricating properties of the drilling fluid, which can help to reduce torque and drag and improve the overall drilling performance. It also helps to control the viscosity of the mud, allowing for better suspension of drilled cuttings and improved hole cleaning. Magidal Plus is typically added to the drilling fluid system in small concentrations, depending on the specific requirements of the operation. It is compatible with other drilling fluid additives and can be used in a wide range of drilling applications. Overall, Magidal Plus is a valuable chemical product for the treatment of alkaline aqueous oil invert mud systems. Its pH stabilizing properties, along with its other beneficial effects, help to ensure the smooth operation of drilling operations and improve overall drilling efficiency..
Reviews for "The Advantages of Utilizing Magidal Plus in Alkaline AOI"
1. John - 2/5 - I purchased Magidal plus for alkaline aoi expecting it to work wonders for my health, but I was left disappointed. The taste of the water was off-putting, and the alkaline properties didn't make any noticeable difference in my well-being. I also found that the water didn't stay alkaline for very long, which defeats the purpose of buying this product. Overall, I wouldn't recommend Magidal plus for alkaline aoi as there are better alternatives available in the market.
2. Sarah - 3/5 - I was intrigued by the claims of Magidal plus for alkaline aoi and decided to give it a try. While it did slightly increase the alkalinity of the water, I didn't experience any significant benefits. The price is also quite high for what it offers. Additionally, I found the product difficult to use and maintain, with the filter needing frequent replacements. Overall, I wasn't impressed with Magidal plus for alkaline aoi and would suggest exploring other options before making a purchase.
