hehe thank you.
BTW happy new year to every one :).
I read the best I could, seeing as there is nearly 300 posts its not hard to miss a few so I apologize you if I have a legit question and it offends you.
Every other UV dye on the market fades pretty quickly and tend to gunk up waterblocks in my experience.
Simple yes or no, are these powder based dyes? If thats too hard Ill seek other alternatives.
Sorry for my arrgence.
Yes these are basicly powder based dyes. The dyes are made to be as simple yet effective as possble. Ive been running the dyes now for over 8 months in 3 systems. 1 Injector block and 2 x normal. Allso they have been tested now on over 30+ systems with out fault. Obversly i cannot even contemplete all diffrent systrem but i have tryed my best.
The dyes Will stain your system as well given time and the more of the dye yuse use the quicker it will effect you system. I posted quite ealy on some staning results.
I havent hidden any info from users at all but then again i cannot mix every thing on the market as well as unknowns. The dyes will block you system if you go puring vast ammount in due to the nature of dyes alone. How ever if your carfeull and clean you system out and use decent biocide such as a kill coil or PT_Nuke you will be fine. How ever if you go nuts and pour 10 mls of this stuff into a 1 ltr system i can say with out doubt it will stain you system like a :banana::banana::banana::banana::banana: how ever i cannot say if it will block you system after 8 months or so as i only run a max of 1 ml (wich is over kill) in each system with out problems.
ALL dyes are powder based and no dye isnt powder based. Even factory dyes come from powder or plant ect ect. The diffrence from factory made powder based (sold as liquid) is that they are upto 50x less concentrate than these dyes.
e.g the clear blue i sell in 2ml will so upwards of 25+ systems. The equilent pre bought factory made one will do 5 @ 10mls, mine is 25 @ 2mls. How ever after 8 months at 1ml in 1 system there has been no staining and no blocking at all. how every you will have to take my word for this for now. I have done extensive testing my self and have pulled many of the dyes that failed any of the tests.
My test were not some 5 min boil in the pan and freeze liquid. I have been running these in live systems and doing things like running the system hot with the Res cap off (evap) to see how they do and so much more.
If using injector block its allways best to aviod useing any dyes in fact if you after performace then dont use any thing except a kill coil and water simple as that else any thing extra will bring up the temps.
I hope this answers all you questions. If not just ask more and ill answer as best as i possbly can.
So could I drink it? how does it taste?
I ordered some candy red dye.
I'll post some pics of my loop when I get it. :)
I noticed earlier in the thread, there was an orange UV reactive dye... Any plans to add this to the site soon?
I do have orange but its not a nice colour but if you would like it adding i can do how every the colour isnt that nice.

Ill get some pics taken tonight if i can and ill put it up for sale.
Hmm... That doesnt glow very much. I need lots of glow to show through tinted acrylic. I know I want green but I am unsure on what other color I want. Got any other bright UV reactive dyes in the works?
I do have a red but it looks a bit wired as well the orange does glow ill get some pics tonight it all depends on how the light hits it (that was a bad pic).. I do have new dies under test atm wich are UV but untill the dyes pass the test there is no point posting.
becuase i only sell dyes in there normal form with no extras UV blue is a Mix of blue dye and Clear UV pigment (clear uv Blue). So to get a blue effect you would Mix Blue and UV blue together.
I can many coulur for people but im trying to stick to the basics to start with. The problem is i cannot pelase ever one all the time.
I ws lookin at uv orange tonight and it is brighter bur for some god awfull reason my camra will not take a pic of it. thats what you get for using a cheap ass camra lol.
Just wondering are you located in US or EU? Just wondering about ordering to Finland and how the posting would be. Havent had any problems ordering inside EU but a bit hesitant on ordering from US.
Originally I was gonna just go clear distilled water+killcoil because I dont want my blocks to be blocked, but now I'm quite interested of trying your dyes. Atleast I find it hard to believe that low amount of dye would cause any gunk inside... (I dont mind staining). Actually I think I'll order enough of these to dye my liquid for a lifetime!! That way I'll stil have the dye if you someday stop making these ;)
edit: read the earlier page, so you're in UK :). Do you ship to Finland though?
edit2: Any plans on selling blue dye in 10ml bottles? Would be easier than buying a ton of 2ml's :F
Hi there if you give me 20 min or so ill set up ordering to finland for you.
The Blue isnt UV its just Blue and will do about 5 systems.
and UV clear Blue will do about 20+ water cooling systems. per 2ml
... 5 min later
Oky there is Blue 10ml on there . if you what it UV blue youll just need 1 UV 2ml clear blue as well.
Finland post and packing is set up as well for you.
Cool! Gonna order those on friday then. Will post how it looks once I have my comp together :D
Just had a report of one the the vials has broken in the post when it got there wich is a first but piture proof was good enough for me.
For now ill just add some extras padding to the envelop's (wich are allready padded) to cover this but ill find a better container in the next few days.
If any one else come's across this problem just send me a pic of the dammage and ill sort it out and sorry for any inconvence caused.
Jesus imagine the 'terrorist scare' if some of the powder got loose in the post office.
Yeh ive been contacted to day by a maker of bottle and weve been talking about supply. My only problem is the ammount i have to buy is mental but im sure they will sel to me. if they do the bottle sizes may change but hopefully the price wont change to much.
Tbh your only paying a tiney ammount for the dye its the bottles and post and packing thats the killer else i would sell them off at £1 each.
If things goes to plan any way the bottle sizes will go upto 5ml / 10ml / 25ml / and for system builder 1 Ltr.
the vials will be taken out cos i dont what mr post man dyeing all his letters lol. Just hope next time its not raining lol else he will be leveing a green trail behind him.
Hmm i dont know to be honist. Ive sent out over 100+ of them vials and this was the fiest. But to be honist 1 out 100+ isnt bad odds but still its not good enough.
Ive orderd the 5ml bottles and there own the way. They had 3ml bottle but they were more expansive than 5ml so i didnt see the point. So when the new bottles arrive price will go up by 50p but youll get 5mls insted of 2mls and ill still incllude a pipette incase any one whats to use them still even though they will be dropper bottles.
The caps are anti open ones so youll no there not been messed with wich is a good thing how ever since im the only person that sells these dyes youll no that any way.
Anyone have any good in loop shots of the Blue non uv Dye? And how does it look under LED lighting or do I need CFL?
