That stuff is definitely impressive! I really like that silver mixture you have! :D
Are you looking for testers? I'll pay the shipping or whatever to get some of that papa blue and record results for you.
Depending on my funds, I might be willing to do the same with some of that silver :D
If it were that simple, I'd have people doing that right now.
Silver was a screwed-up one-shot that failed in loop testing. It had to do with my old carrier fluid, and the new one is great (fallout over the course of a week with no agitation versus fallout over minutes or hours) but it costs me more, and I have to travel to get it. I was considering doing a list, but I hate charging people anything (even shipping) for a product I don't know if will fail. It's hard to guarantee anything right now-I have a fluid that's been running beautifully in a high-pressure high speed loop, but dunno what it will do when it gets to a lower speed/pressure one-but I know my new dyes stain tubes bad. It's not a problem from the viewpoint of the fluid was easily visible but it is if you wanna change colors.
I can do a non-staining version of most colors. I think I can do an easily made non-staining Papa Midnight, but it would be a limited edition... The problem is cost. Silver will require new materials (gold, copper and bronze are possible too) and all of it needs more carrier fluid, which I'm low on ATM. It's almost like needing preorders to test it. SXR and Fuganater will get theirs as they helped fund testing for the stuff I have now and got into a usable state. My premix is 100% ready to go, when I make another batch. So I could open up ordering for my premix which is clear and should come in 16 and 32 oz bottles (All-American as well guys) if anyone is interested. Premix could fund the rest, making it possible, but with our income so low I don't want to take food from our mouths to fund an endeavor that may be ultimately futile. Nor do I want to solicit money for a product that might be a huge flop.
At any rate, premix ordering should open soon. If it takes off, these will come back. Even then, I don't expect that I'll see them take off-even without Mayhem's having a large presence in the US, he has fierce brand loyalty, and he well deserves it-he's a great innovator. Also, he has a worldwide patent on the stuff. Kinda shot out the gate here.
Anyway, there ya go, if anyone still has questions I'll be glad to field them.
Actually, the fluid itself may not require dye if the tubes are deliberately stained beforehand. I've never thought of dyeing the tubes before, but it seems like a great idea applicable to some mod projects. Permanently translucent UV-reactive tubing seems kinda neat, especially since it obviates the need for dyes to be present in the cooling fluid itself, or possibly, could augment overall visual impact when combined with dyed coolants in same or different colours.
Unless the reverse becomes a problem; that is, the dye staining just doesn't have permanent staying power. Or the fluid - at least fluids with suspended particles, like those above - gradually (and unevenly) abrades the "permanent" dye away as it circulates. Or the staining somehow chemically degrades the tubing plastics or reacts undesirably with certain coolant additives. (This last seems unlikely, but I suppose it's better to test than to assume.)
Perhaps you could shift your experimentation into providing a market for custom-coloured tubing? Perhaps even combine it with coloured blocks, fittings, and pump chassis (made from dyed plastics or dyed anodized aluminum) ... just an idea.
Dyed tubing is made with it in the PVC granules, and it's very, very popular.
I have a way to make it without dyes, just more upfront cost for me. Something I can't do right now, but will look at revisiting in the future.
OOO WOW ......ASWM vdo....:)good work well done
Hows it coming Kayin? I'd like to see some orange soon. My project is due in 16 days and your coolant would look great in it.
I've got one bottle of orange concentrate here, but a sudden downturn in my health has stopped stuff for a bit. I've been able to create a repeatable formula that's safe, performs better, and is simpler to make, it's now getting enough chemicals together to get the samples out to all the people that need them.
Been in and out of the hospital with shortness of breath, and found it's both rib deformities from Marfan's and severe osteoarthritis of said ribs. So in other words, it's not gonna get better, but it will get worse. That kinda ate up what spare money we had. At this point, my general thoughts are to get this stuff to the people who helped with financial/gear contributions and then I'm not sure how much more will get done. All the money I had to develop with went out the window. I might sell some stuff, but even that would be more likely to buy groceries than to develop anything else. All our bills are paid, I just have nothing to develop with.
I really dunno what to do with it other than shelf it. Any attempts at marketing will most likely get a nice lawsuit brought against me, and while I have my own premix and nanofluid using nobody else's anything, it costs a fairly large amount of money to do anything with it. For now, I'm thinking.
damn dude sorry to hear :( hope all gets better soon!
