It won't dye your tubing(I assume), but I'm pretty sure it would still clog blocks because it's just a bunch of particles suspended in water. The easiest alternative is to just use colored tubing

nothing has better heat transfer than water...so dont buy into the marketing mumbo jumbo... beware of marketing...it can sound good but can be very bad :/

I used the EK blue coolant for 18 months with absolutely no staining or gunking whatsoever. However, I have clear coolant in my current loop as I have white hosing.

I would use Primochill 1/2" ID 3/4" OD.

Also, with the Gentle Typhoons, you want the 1850rpm AP-15 model. The ones that you have listed are horrendously loud.

ok i swapped out tubing for primochiil primoflex PRO. eliminated silver coil since coolant highly recommends not adding additional chemicals. how am i gonna cut this tube and will it fit right over the nozzles for the blocks?
