I did put in three drops of the 3% Dave and when it went grey, I put in some 
more but it went nearly black!  I assumed it was because there is something 
else in the 3%.  dee

I only ever had one batch do that, it went from very dark yellow, to cloudy brown, to cloudy dark grey-almost black from adding peroxide. I suspect there were a lot of very large silver particles in the batch to begin with. It was so many years ago, and I did throw out that batch, but now wish I had continued to add a bit of peroxide every couple days to see what would have happened. It also may have been a batch that started with very bad distilled water, as it was from before I had a test meter, and didn't realize how bad commercial distilled water could be around here. I'm having very good results from commercially sold distilled water these days...........I think it comes from a different source than it used to do. Because you are using a TDS, even testing your distilled water beforehand, you could have very poor DW to start with, and the contaminants in the DW could vary from time to time, batch to batch once in a while. I say that because the commercial DW I'm using now with clear CS results is higher in uS than the water I distilled myself (double distilling). Home distilling: to get clear finished CS the water had to be .2uS to .3 uS if single distilled, or no higher than .4uS after double distilling. The commercial DW we're getting now is much higher--in fact the water from a new jug I just opened read 5.0 uS. So I'm about to find out if that will make yellow CS or not. It seems to me I have conclusive proof that it isn't just the uS reading of the distilled water but also WHAT it is that is in the DW that is raising the conductance.
