Best Orange fluid

[Ninro]

Hi All

 

I'm doing my first water cooling rig, i have all the parts bar the fluid sorted.

 

I want a orange solid colour, but my friend i've been talking with says that pastel stains and leaves marks on the tube, is this true?

 

If so can someone let me know a close alternative that doesnt stain but still is a deep orange colour, this is the one i was looking at : https://mayhems.co.uk/coolants/pastel-coolants/pastel-pre-mix-1ltr/orange-1ltr/

 

Thanks

The Pastel coolants can stain, but it can depend a lot on the tubing and components use and if you leave it sitting for long periods. If it's not sitting still for long periods of time, it shouldn't stain. 

 

If you're worried, try going for a clear coolant and some of Mayhems non-staining dye. Buy some yellow and red and mix them to get the orange you want. I'd advise mixing it and then filling the loop rather than filling and then mixing.
