I have used both as well.
From what I remember reading they are very similar, but I use for 2 different purposes. I read a review of Marine Digest-It and went to buy it. The local Ace was supposed to have it on the shelf, but only had the RV version. I called the company and they said either would work. The info I have on the Norflex came from this site and the write up on the Marine Sanitation web site. I use together, they seem to compliment each other.
The Digest It is useful bacteria that breakdown waste into much less objectionable compounds. According to the Marine Santation website Norflex Digestor hepls promote aerobic bacteria (which is what the Digest It is) and breaks down compounds that cause odors. I have been spraying Norflex on older sanitation hoses in the bilge hoping to get another year or two.
I agree with Dave. If you read and believe, they appear to do the same thing in the same way. During pump out, I cannot tell any difference whatsoever. I will try an experiement though...I have taken a TSB of Norflex and put in a dirty bilge sump with some water and in 30 min or so, it foams up, and the sump is clean. I have never tried this with the Digest It, but I will at first chance and report back.
