Home made UV dyes

How mutch candy red inn the 1ltr fluid?? Just try out with different amount of red? I'll be off to mix a few samples with the blue added and with the purple added

[Alien Grey]

I'm cleaning my loop and I took a few pictures how it looks like after 4 months with the UV Yellow/Green and UV Green mixture. I'll add them to thread so everyone can see them when I'm done.

My 2 cents - if for experiment dyed water simply stayed in bottle, then fading results might differ with actual running loop, where water never stays still.

erm hehe

The way these tests are run i dont just leave them in a bottle they are running in real water cooled PCs for very long periods of time. How ever i cannot account for every single problems but i do a dammed good job at trying to get them coverd with the help of other forum members who all have different loops and let me know how its going.

My candy red has faded completely by now... Hot loop 24/24, the WCG marathon meant nonstop maximum heat. Using deionized water + candy red + your biocide.

How much biocide you used mate. only 1 drop per 1 ltr is enough.

might have to look at weekening it down more. still maybe way to strong if its still killing colours.

I think once i have the kill coils ill be removing the biocide from the sales.

I used 2 drops, my loop has about 2l water.

[M40TURBO]

Here is a mix of 1ltr liquid + 15 drops candy red and 50 drops of thinned purple.

[M40TURBO]

This is how the colors look now. Red 20-25 drops 90-100 of thinned purple. On 1ltr of distilled. Blue around 700ml and 7-8 drops.

[mlwood37]

1 drops probs enough for 2 ltrs to be honist. 1 x 5ltr on of concentrate is enough for 50,000 Ltr of liquid lol.

[mlwood37]

All sorted

Im just gonna post this because im really annoyed with the way ive been treated.

First one one of the forums member put http://www.angela.pl/ in contact with me ref orders and Bulk supply them dyes. (its not the forums members fault any of this)

Now after chatting with http://www.angela.pl/ they decided to place a large order of dyes at one hell of a discounted rate (45% Off)

Now they asked for credit which was fair enough as the company is quite large and they said they would pay with in 28 Days.

This HAS never happened and this was well over 5 months ago now and they still owe me well in access of over £350.

Now to some it may not seem like allot but as a very tiny company ive been struggling from day one and every thing i have done from sending out hundreds of samples to buying in new dyes for testing and i have no profit what so ever and have never made a penny from doing this. Yet Company's Like this literal takes the piss and think its funny to take these products off me and then never pay me even though they have sold on plenty of dyes. The cheeky people even asked for a Price on me exporting pre mix to them which would cost me a fortune.

To be honest all of this is leaving a very sour taste in my mouth as other companies all so seem to expect to do the same with me. Im now Down over £4000 with all the work ive been doing (this is taking into account every thing). I have had people ask me send them dyes they would review which only 2 of them ever have and i Thank you for this Guys. I had loads of ppl with build logs who have never bothered there assess to even give me a mention and all of this topped up with the fact company wont pay up.

Now the product i been working on is cheap , there is no way i can do it any cheaper. While im still being walked all over but people like this. Im going to re consider ever thing im doing in the next few weeks and if the situation doesn't change my just pull all my work. this includes certain companys Pre order Bulk liquids and then never bothering to follow up after they have all been made for them.

Any way this is my rant over . im just annoyed with being treated like this and If you are polish and reading you may what to convey to http://www.angela.pl/ how bad they really are.

mlwood37, sorry to hear about this kind of crap from such a large e-tailer but, it doesn't really surprise me. One way to deal with them is to not send any new orders until past dues are paid in full. Also, start sending them invoices on a weekly basis and warn them that if it's not paid in 4 weeks time, they will start coming on a daily basis until paid. Another method might be to add an interest rate to over due bills, say 2% per day. You might also want to look into getting your money through the legal system and let them know you are looking into pursuing such action.

Sorry to hear about something like this.. I really dislike people like that. :@

I have more bad news on you're red\purple dyes. Don't know why this is happening. The rad is new, just flushed. The tubing is unused. The res was unused but flushed. Distilled water. One of the ek 5970 blocks were used, but washed real good. The second one was tested with a mix of water and you're dyes. No flow.

Tested old pump tubes and res with water and purple dye for almost 2 months. Then the color was the same.. Put inn a rad,cpu\gpu block. Then it looked like something happened. Sorry i didn't test it for more then a few days.
But here's a pic of the blue and what was red 2-3days ago. The blue is the same as before.

OMG that one hell of a reaction. did you use bicode with this (mine) if so im going to pull it as its killing colours. Ive seen the same reaction on another biocide i tested once before but forgot which one it was.

[mlwood37]

kw mate if needs be ill send you all the emails back and forth to them. 1 min they say there emails are not working , then they say they will pay me and it will be in my bank in 4 days time , then they say the same thing again , then they ask for a quote on the pre mix, ect ect ect. No offence they may be very good sellers but as buyers they are bad.

They have lost my trust and any discount they had before and if they wanted to buy any thing in the future it would be cash up front.

[Church]

Can interest rates be added later on if not agreed upon/signed in sell/purchase contract? I'd rather try to scare with taking issue to civil court ..

For product that's already been sold, doubt it, but it can most certainly be added to new or reworked agreements. Cash up front works nicely too.

[M40TURBO]

No there is no biocide inn there at all. Going to add a kill coil when i decide to get a pair. Same distilled water in both the res. Just added you're dye's. It's strange that the blue is still the same.. The blue loop has the same tubes that was used the last time, only cleaned them. Same res, rad, cpu block. Just cleaned. Don't know why it's reacting like this, maybe my bad luck But it would be nice to know what it was, and if anybody else have had the same experience..

[cleiomar]

Just received my dyes today, is it safe to run candy red and deep purple or can I expect results like M40TURBO?

Ive been running the same mix in my system now for over 9 moths + in my own water cooled rig with no problems how ever for some reason M40TURBO mix isnt working well as expected. I dont know why as this is the only reported problem so far out of 1000+ sales.

the only time i have had problems is when mixed with the biocide as if to strong when i first made it but i resolved that issue.

[cleiomar]

I mixed 40 drops candy red and about 1 drop of deep purple into 1 litre of water, is that too much? I'll post a pic shortly.

[armeniandave]

I absolutely love the blue that your dyes
made for my wall case. I mentioned it in
my build log but if people haven't seen it
please look at my wall case build log in my
sig.

I also have put the same blue in my torture
rack to match the case on the wall.

Thanks so much for the dyes I will definitely
use them in all future builds!

mlwood37, maybe the red disappearing is a reaction with some metals in loops ? I have mostly nickel plated blocks (full covers for MB + 2 GPUs), one copper block (CPU) and radiators (brass). I also have nickel plated BP fittings... So 90% nickel i'd say, maybe it reacts with the red dye ?

[Alexandr0s]

Very good to hear everything has been resolved .

[M40TURBO]

My loop with the red\purplr dye has 2x5970 nickel blocks from ek, bp\ek compression fittings, bras rad. Maybe someone with a nickel block can test it out and compare to another type of block.
As i said i ran a test on the purple on a loop of pump and res. That did not fade to much i think..
