    I think that the Koolance blue uv Tubing looks really good (a nice blue crystal clear when unlit, and a nice blue when lit), but it kinks too ez and doesn't stay that clear for too long .

    UV tests plz then sticky!
    I would say the MasterKller has one of the nicest reactions to UV...it tends to flouresce a light blue on it's own and really lets the UV dye glow fully.

    Not at all impressed by ClearFlex60. I would stay away from it and that Primoflex crap altogether.

    For the money it's hard to beat MasterKleer...although it does take a stain from some dyes after a long period of time.

    Basically a higher durometer tends to have less Plasticizer leech too. The same stuff that makes Primo and ClearFlex so soft and flexible is the same stuff that makes for LCS smegma...
