i took my watercooling system apart today just to see check up on it. (2 month anneversary) i noticed that my tubing was clouded with some type of clear film. i used a pipe cleaner to clean it out and it became a bit more clearer. i then examined my waterblock to see if it was leaking. to my surprise they have a blue tint and i have no clue why (ill try to take a pic). these are nylonbarbs btw.
now im thinking that this is from the antifreeze both deposits on tubing and blue tint on barbs. now i want to prevent these deposits. would i have to move to something else?
i used a 25:75 (coolant:water) . is this much concentration really needed for a copper and brass cooling system? could i just run distilled (w/out any water wetter or anything else). now i was thinking of using windshield wiper fluid, but i read somewhere that it isnt as good as using water wetter
