Which brand tubing do you use?

I'm using xspc, no signs yet, been in 6-8 weeks, rebuilt the loop just 2 days ago and the empty pipes looked as good as my unused pipe so reused it with no problems.

ATM I'm pinning my hope on someone saying "masterkleer", lol. xspc don't seem to make 13/10 tubing which is what all my fittings are.

i use masterkleer 13/10

so far it looks alright, but i left the system for 3 months whilst i was away and there was a layer of plasticiser in the bottom of my res - it all cleared out when i turned it on - but i guess this tubing does have a lot of excess plasticiser

i dont really know about discoloration because i use mayhems raspberry so its difficult to say really

anyway, ill probably be tearing it down in a month or so to fit a few new components so i can update the build log with the tubing pics
 
I had clouding with Masterkleer (distilled/silver coil and biocide)

I swapped to and since have had no issues with xspc (Distilled/silvercoil)
 
I'm using masterkleer and I've got some plasticiser fluff in my cpu block :(

Only a few months in with mayhems red
 
When I started water cooling about 3 years ago I set up with Feser UV blue and UV red tube. I still have the UV blue tube. If it was clear you might be able to see some very light clouding in the tube itself, but crucially no plasticiser deposits anywhere. Because it is coloured you are none the wiser about the light clouding, after 3 years it is still perfectly usable.

The red on the other hand suffered MASSIVE plasticiser leach after 18 months and was ditched and would never buy red again on the basis of this, regardless who makes it.
 
Am using tygon tubing with mayhems pastel ice white built about 3-4 mths ago and no issues , had to drain it the other day to change some fitting and no clouding at all.
