    If rougly counted how much it would take to make 1 litre of coolant with those colors.
    1 litre of "1 drop" water = 6,5 drops
    2 litre of "2 drops" water = 13 drops
    3 litre of "3 drops" water = 19,5 drops

    No matter how you think, that 19,5 drops would seem a bit extreme since the instructions on the website say "max 5 drops per litre". Mlwood, is the blue really just that light or is there something funny with my test?

    Tbh, the colors with 2 and 3 drops are around the area what I'd like my liquid to look like but both have over 2x the amount of dye your instructions suggest.
    Hi there the blue is a light blue due to its nature the dark blue should be out of test with in the next week or so. I had to test the dark blue for build up on metal for longer as i what to make shure it has no adverse effects. You will be fine upto 3 mls per ltr of the light blue. I can send you out a new sample of the dark blue for you to compaire against in in the next week if you remind me.

    Seemingly as im passing these dyes through the new filter system i do seem to be losing some of the orignal colour i will get this sorted.

    Atm the filter is 4 pass (meaning 4 filters) ill drop it down to two and check results my self to see how they go.

    The green UV is the weekest dye out of them all dye to its nature but again im going to combat this problem as weve talked about agray buy adding more lumance wich is comming from china.

    If any one is not happy with there order just let me know and ill refund or replace. New dyes will be comming out of test (stronger coulours over the weeks) just need to make sure there perfect before i sell them. I dont what any one comming back saying OMG youve killed my system ... Allso will check my filtering process as well.
