Due to ongoing EK issues it is getting harder and harder to obtain their Solid Cooling liquids. 

 

Does anyone know an alternative to their Solid Cooling Liquids(Liquids that are not translucent, they are solid) ?

 

PrimoChill Vue is not an options as it is known to disintegrate over a period of a month

Distilled mixed with proper percentage of EK mix is what I'd recommend, especially since you seem to be after clear unless I'm misunderstanding. Some loops like coolants more than distilled water, specific setups. Though I'm always a fan of distilled with anti-bacterial whenever custom setup is the topic.

The OP pointed out the problem with EK, so please recommend a non-EK solution. 

 

BTW, distilled can promote galvanic corrosion.

I've been using computers since around 1978, started learning programming in 1980 on Apple IIs, started learning about hardware in 1990, ran a BBS from 1990-95, built my first Windows PC around 2000, taught myself malware removal starting in 2005 (also learned on Bleeping Computer), learned web dev starting in 2017, and I think I can fill a thimble with all that knowledge. 😉 I'm not an expert, which is why I keep investigating the answers that others give to try and improve my knowledge, so feel free to double-check the advice I give.

My phone's auto-correct is named Otto Rong.🤪😂

The CyroFuel mix is an older product, you just have to make sure the expiry date ain't on its way though.

No, I want the color to be solid, meaning you cannot see trough the liquid at all
