This is the opaque range in concentrate form, the same solid, saturated colour and the same suspension chemistry as Vue and the Opaque Pre-Mix, finished with your own DI water. For a large loop that needs more than 32 oz, it is substantially cheaper per litre than buying pre-mix.

01
Why pump hours matter
The colour lasts as long as the suspension does, and pump hours wear it down, not the calendar.
0 h8 h a day24 h
Under 8 hours a day
The design limit. Turn the system off when it is not in use. The less it runs, the longer a fill lasts.
Past 8 hours, every day
This is a show coolant, not a daily driver. Every extra hour drops the suspension faster, and a loop run hard every day can wear a fill out in weeks.
It lasts as long as it lastsPump hours, how well the loop was prepped, and how much air is out of the system decide it. Plan around six months, not twelve.
Pump speedRun it as slow as your thermals allow. Higher flow shears the suspension apart faster.
Measure onceGet the ratio wrong and the suspension is either streaky or prone to dropping out.

Get it in the loop in five steps
- 1
Tear down and clean
Every surface cleaned before anything goes in.
- 2
SysPrep, then flush
Strips the machining oil and flux that break a suspension.
- 3
PrimoPrep, then flush
The 2 oz bottle in the box conditions the loop for the fill.
- 4
Mix the whole bottle, once
All 8 oz into 1 gallon of DI. Measure properly.
- 5
Inspect on day 3
A strand or thin colour this early means a prep gap, not bad fluid.

What it goes into, and how a fill ages
✓Use with
- DI waterThe base for the mix.
- Copper, brass, nickel-plated copperThe metals it is formulated for.
- More of the same mix, for top-upsThe only thing that goes in after the fill.
✕Never with
- Plain water after mixingPushes the inhibitor package below spec.
- Aluminum, silver, or silver-plated partsCorrosion, and they break the suspension down.
- Dyes, biocides, kill coils, other coloursPigment packages compete for suspension.
Day 1
Fill and bleed24 hours with the pump running. Check every fitting twice.
Day 3
First inspectionTorch on the reservoir. Strands or a film mean the prep was short.
1 month
CheckupTop up with the same mix. Compare the colour with day one.
When it drops
Drain and serviceThinning, settling or film on the acrylic. Plan around six months.
