What kind of non-ionic surfactant should I use with Drive XLR8?

The Drive label recommends methylated seed oil as a surfactant but I already have the Southern Ag non-ionic surfactant. What is the difference and will either one work with Drive XLR8?

Answer:

Non-Ionic Surfactant for Herbicides is a non-ionic surfactant and does not contain methylated seed oil (MSO). The MSO actually helps to strip away the waxy coating on the target weeds, while a regular non-ionic surfactant will not do this. So while a regular non-ionic surfactant is better than no surfactant, it will not provide as good of results as using an MSO surfactant such as Duo Stick when using a quinclorac herbicide such as Drive XLR8.
