It sounds like the mix ratio might be off but 18g for 60ml is right according to the directions. Here are the instructions pulled from their site
Good to know I at least got the measurement right according to their directions I suppose haha!

"This product is designed to be mixed into a 30% solution. (3 g / 10 mL, 30 g / 100 mL, 300 g / L). You can mix only what you need but amounts less than 100 mL will require very accurate measurement. YOU WILL NEED A SCALE TO USE THIS PRODUCT ACCURATELY. Add half total desired volume of water to container, then add weighed amount of RescueCal + to water while stirring, and then top off water to desired volume. It can take up to 30 minutes for the minerals to fully dissolve in water. Starting with HOT water will decrease this time but is not necessary.

Refrigeration will extend freshness"

Perhaps using half of the water then adding the powder and mixing and then topping off will help. If it still isn't creating a proper solution you might want to contact Repashy for advice.
I tried doing half water at a time but still no good. =/ I contacted Repashy before this post and haven't gotten a response. I also contacted Beardeddragon.co and no response from them either. So I contacted Tracie and she's been so so helpful!

Turns out the liquid calcium mixture going off of the directions is way way too potent and Tracie formulated a much safer dose for my guy. And it just so happens the premade liquid calcium I was using before from beardeddragon.co is dosed at "recommended reptile dosage : 23mg/kg" It says "1cc per kg or 0.1cc per 100 grams of body weight. Give one dose by mouth every 12 - 24 hours." and this amount is too much as well. I had no idea! Always double check the calcium you're using with someone knowledgeable! It's pretty scary how easy it is to incorrectly dose an animal if you can't trust the manufacturer label.

As always, thanks for the response CooperDragon!
