PrimoChill Dye Bomb

If I were to purchase Feser 1 fluid, blue, could I then purchase a PrimoChill Dye Bomb Blue to get a different shade of blue or are they meant to be used with clear fluids?

Should be fine however, mixing dyes could have less than desirable effects.

yep, just like mixing screenwash additives in your car, the dyes could turn into a gloop that blocks the components up.

Ha ha ha! Tell me about it! Had problems from day one with my crappy clio sport! Amazing how the screen wash blasts out on the passengers side yet dribbles on mine. :mad:

You could always test them together in something beforehand (maybe the screenwasher tank in your car?

)

LOL, nice one. How good does the feser 1 blue look anyway?

I've got it and green together and it looks week compared to the green fluid. Next time I change the fluid out I'm switching to a new colour.

Damn! I want a vibrant blue too. Would you say feser 1 clear fluid then time to mess with a few drops of PrimoChill Dye Bomb blue?

Distilled water is conductive thought isnt it?

Yes, as are all these fluids after they've been in a loop with the metal blocks for a while.

Crashgate3 · 21 Dec 2008 at 16:03

Distilled water is a tiny bit conductive but nowhere near as much as normal water. It's about as non-conductive as you can get with it still being just water.

Why dont you go with UV tubing for a real vibrant colour?

Thought about that also but would like to see fluid. Is it a lot more vibrant then? I did want white tubing initially but its not very easy to come by.

Well my UV tubing is much more vibrant than the blue & orange dyes I have used, and much better than the fluid I had that was already UV blue!
You wont see the fluid much in a pump (IR DDC with clear top) but will in the res I guess.

Check this for UV tube http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=17952684

Looks quality phunky. Will definately consider UV Coloured tubes. What fluid did you use? Feser 1 Blue?

Crashgate3 · 23 Dec 2008 at 10:10

Just use UV tubing and UV fluid. You'd get the vibrancy in the tubes then but still be able to see it in the res. That's what I'm thinking of doing.
