    Coolant for FogBuster?

    What type of coolant would you recommended for cutting aluminum in a FogBuster system?

    Here is what FogBuster stated: "We use Hangsterfer's S-500 CF when working with aluminum and mild steel." "Cimcool's Cimstar 3890 works well with stainless steel." "Our customers have reported that Koolmist Formula 77 is also a good all around choice." "If cost is not a major concern, Acculube LB 2000 is an excellent plant based cutting oil that does not require mixing."

    I have no experience with the aforementioned.

    Whatever you use, make sure it's safe to inhale, because you WILL be inhaling it....

    I've used Hangsterfer S500 CF with no problems and so far as I can tell, none of it is making its way into my lungs.
