Home made UV dyes

After 4 months using 30 drops dye and 2% Anchor Water Wetting Agent in 520ml DEMI water this is how it looks like.


The colour is almost gone as you can see in the picture of the tiny bottle with some of the dye mixture.




After flushing my loop and filling it again with DEMI water the reservoir and loop doesn't show any signs of staining.

i wonder if that has some thing to do with the wetting agent your using ill take photos tonight of 1 loop with yellow / green after 1 year + and its defo not gone as bad as that. This system only has 1 CCFL in it though. I really need to check what sample i sent you.

If you send me you address money ill send you out a retail versions of the yellow / green and Blue to make up a Green mix.

I don't know if it's the Anchor Water Wetting Agent. The colour started to fade only a few weeks a go and the only thing I can think of is sunlight.

I only added 1% Anchor Water Wetting Agent to my new mixture with 12 drops dye. When the colour starts fading again I'm going to try without the Anchor Water Wetting Agent for some time to see if it's better or not.

I'll give you my address to try something new. Don't get me wrong I'm more than happy with the results of my first run with the dye but of course you'll want to improve your products so it could last a little longer and I'll be happy to try something new to see how it goes.
