uv dyes?

I'm sure a few of guys on the xs have seen my computer, and me personally think it could us some color. I want to put uv dye in my loop, but i heard they clog blocks. Is there any dye that i could add that won't clog my blocks?
As of right now my loop is 95% distilled water with 5% valvoline zerex. I think a uv dye would look pretty nifty with a uv light that i just ordered, and considering dfi boards are uv reactive it would have a nice touch.

Any of the water soluable dyes that you buy from frozencpu, cool-cases-usa, etc. won't clog up anything. Its when people use highlighters and food coloring and stuff that problems can happen due to the dye in them being particulate based.

I just received my 12" uv light i installed it and it looks great, the dfi board looks really cool now because all the yellow and red parts react to the uv. All i'm waiting for now is the green uv dye i purchased from frozencpu.com

I'll make sure i take pics

Pentosin & UV Dye?

Anyone know if you could add this type of stuff to Pentosin and have it become UV reactive but still retain its blue color under normal light?
