Two questions:

[King Damager]

How black is black tubing? So for example if I used some pastel coolant, what are the chances of being able to see the coolant though the tubing?

Also, is there any issue of using different coloured tubing throughout a loop? Basically would there be any issue with using half a loop as black and half as clear or the such like?

on a scle of black to black, I can confirm it is black

zero if using masterkleer, unless you have some stupidly bright LED's

Also, is there any issue of using different coloured tubing throughout a loop? Basically would there be any issue with using half a loop as black and half as clear or the such like?
no, but why not use the same colour throughout and black fluid?

Feser black - is midnight blue, satin gloss
XSPC black - is oil black, high gloss with a pearlescent deep purple shine
not tried masterkleer.

Because, I'm considering different colours in the same loop.... So black being one of those colours. Chances are black will black out any coloured dye, where as other coloured tubing would be more likely to show black dye through them...

masterkleer and tygon are both black black

Primochill black loops are a glossy black. They won't loose their colour.
