Chemicals for Gray Tank
We use Thetford Campa Chem in our BLACK tank and looking to find what chemicals should be added to the GRAY tank to reduce odor.

Most RV'ers do NOT put any food stuffs or grease down the sink in an RV.
Depending your time between dumps food just rots in a gray tank which is why most do not allow food scraps down the drain.
Also do not leave your gray or black tank open when parked in a CG. Waste and food will just 'sit' on the bottom of these dry tanks making for a stinky mess. Let tanks fill so there is water to move the stuff around and which allows it to exit when you do open the valves to dump.
That said.
I found that almost all grocery stores carry a store brand of lemon cleaner for a $1.00!
When it's time to dump the gray tank I first add half a bottle of this lemon cleaner down the sink, then dump. Keeps the tank grease free and odor free.
