The CaNO3 and MgSO4 sounded good to me and I have used it and it doesnt hurt anything but chemists and I mean good chemists tell me that it really doesnt help. The only way to get salt out of pots is to disolve it and wash it away. The energy levels required to get salt out of any media due to chemical reaction is just too high. I find if I soak and wash my chips unlil no color comes out it works find. Checking with a TDS meter is good and confirmed this but they dont last very long. I do well in CHC that I wash out the color though.
