Mayhems more dangerous than Primochill?

[dragonxt]

I'm seeing a lot of conflicting reports/news about Mayhems Pastel Coolant and Primochills' 

 

I HAVE to have opaque fluid in my first loop, so Mayhems pastel extreme a horrible idea? Or should I use a primochill product? Vue?

 

Why does JayzTwoCents not use Mayhems anymore but this forum seems to like Mayhems more than Primochill?

Define more dangerous, both are watercooling fluids but as for documentation of materials and what is used Mayhems has more detail and has a longer history of their products. Between the use of Pastel Extremem or Vue, it depends what you have in your loop if you have any PETG you do not want to use Pastel extreme was it's ethylene glycol based. Something like regular Pastel from Mayhems will be glycerol based and isn't a problem with PETG.

I'm leaning towards Primochill TRUE Opaque, in an acrylic loop with everything else from EK. I suppose all fluids have their dangers and as long as you follow Manufacturer warnings that's the best I can do?

It's all about the preparation before filling the loop and cleaning it, there will always be the odd outlier that has an issue with he fluid but normal it will not have a problem. In your situation if you wanted Mayhems Pastel Extreme or Regular Pastel will both work, including Primochill True.
