orange coolant

[SparkleDJackson]

Hey guys quick question. Anyone know how to make a good orangy orange liquid I used mayhems orange dyebomb and it sucked ass. Looks like a dehydrated persons urine with a hint of blood. Its pretty much awful. The mayhems blue dye is ok but weak so I needed a lot but I need an alternative orange even if it had uv id be cool with it. Anyone got ideas

have you thought about mixing your own with red and yellow dyes? that way you would have complete control over the colour

mayhems yellow + red dyes gets a much better result than orange from what ive seen, in pastel white you can get it just how you want if your looking for a solid finish, ive not seen how it looks in clear base liquid that i can remember.

I have a spre bottle of raspberry blue but my temps with the pastels were a good 5 higher than distilled. It also stains the crap out of the tubing which made the colour fade

the color fade is probably plasticiser build up on the lining of the tube as it makes it go cloudy, was the tubing blue tinted or just cloudy white when you drained it?

there was a powdery residue inside the pipe. it wasnt stained it was like a fine powder that had lined every surface it came in contact with

Yeah thats plasticisers, more than the coolant.

I take it that it look like this?
