Mayhems pastel is this normal??

[steverebo]

Literally filling my loop now and letting it clear the air and I've noticed the foamy stuff in the tubes and res see pics. I'm hoping it's just trapped air.

I did a thorough flush of my rads for 30 mins with warm water plus 2ltr of DI water.

Make sure its not air first, but it does look like it may just be bubbles.

Cheers Tom I'm gonna let run for a few more hours just to make sure I'm just overly cautious with pastel after hearing some horror stories

You may need to move it around too.

Normal bleeding procedure

 

[Warchild]

Just looks like your standard small air bubbles gathering from an incomplete bleed process. Tilt the pc around as TTL says or just leave them to slowly dissipate over time.

Been bleeding it for about 3 hours, I don't remember seeing anything like this on my last couple of builds and I used pastel red although they were both acrylic loops and I found them much easier to bleed.

I've left it to stand and see if they dissipate or coeless into bigger bubbles

There is air in a rad some where fella.

 

[steverebo]

I think it's the consistency of these bubbles that must be unique to pastel coolants that's making me nervouse it looks almost foam like.

I will go and beat my rads with a stick and see if I can get anymore air out of them

Pastel is opaque and there for will show bubbles better than any other liquid out there.
