Well, im using feser stuff, my intentions where pink and blue, but the PINK UV tubing was more of an orange, and i orderd the Red tubing and that is more of a pink lol......from what ive seen most people have best results with UV coolant and Clear tubing.....its wat im planning on using next time!
so basicllay the feser RED tubing is more of a pink, and best results are Clear tubing, UV fluid!
I have to agree, it's hard to get UV tubing to look just how you want, but coolant you can mess with the mixture a bit.Quote:

They would look better if they weren't see through.
on that note, the blue feser stuff i got is :banana::banana::banana::banana:ing imense, it looks amazing under UV and without UV, but you cant see through it, its a really nice colour......my brothers orange tubing looks weak......clear tubing UV fluid is the way foreward!Quote:

I'm going to use the Feser blue and was going to order the Blue UV tubing as well thinking it may add to the effect. I might go with the clear blue UV tubing. I wonder how that will look with the feser one blue UV and clear blue UV tubing.
look at shazza's build log he told me he was using TFC tubing with feser dye
it came out really nice thats what i am planning to do as well :up:
... How well does UV paint stick to tubing?
Probably not well. As soon as the paint cures and the tubing bends I am sure it will crack.Quote:

So guys! What about orange tubing? I saw somewhere that XSPC has nice orange... I LOVE the look of Feser orange under UV light, but in sun light they look so... weak.... Why every company makes them transparent?

it looks nice if you have enough UV light.
The keyword is ENOUGH UV light.
Here's the Feser One Red with the Feser Red tubing (from Danger Den):

The tubing does have a slight "orange" tint, depending on how the light hits it - but it gives a nice red with the Feser One coolant. Note - this is just under white light, no UV source.
I'd say the Primochill Pro LRT tubing is a tad bit "redder." EDIT: rechecked my Pro LRT red tubing ... it's actually not as red as my red stuff from Danger Den/Feser.
Awesome tubes :up:
Here's some Primochill LRT red under a UV cold cathode

The Primochill LRT looks good under UV really pliable too.
Cheers everyone, I think i'll go with clear tubing and red coolant, but am reconsidering blue...
i want red uv but there isn't too much RED UV stuff out
as a matter of fact none of the red stuff is actually uv as the red is the color that is farthest from the uv spectrum
i want red but it doesn't work and my tj07 case has all blue leds and my fan controller has blue leds so i'll just get blue uv... too bad there isn't red uv stuff cause its possible to replace the leds
i bought the red feser dye with clear tubing. ill let you know how it goes if mountain mods ever gives me my case. it should be here by the weekend.
red tubing...use plain old distilled water with a few drops of pt nuke :)
I really like the Primochill stuff.

Depending ont he light, mine looks bloody or pretty damn red... under UV it's well, again, light dependant. Usually looks red but sometimes a wee bit of an orange tint
Primochill UV red is nice too though - but my bottle when very "floaty"

ok just found some red tubes / coolant that is UV... its not actually uv but some of the stuff in the product is uv which has the same effect...
but are there any RED UV cold cathodes? I can't find any RED lights that would showcase the red tubing and stuff
I think he is a she . . . .lol.Quote:

any uv red lights?
The xspc tubing seems to have a very nice bend radius.
