    Anticorrosive for spindle

    In the manual for my CNC machine it's recommended to pour anticorrosive in the cooling water for the spindle. I have searched for anticorrosive but can't find any general product (unless you buy a barrel of it). So what do you use? Will automotive antifreeze (for coolant fluid) work (since it is anticorrosive)?

    Yes, that will work fine. I think all automotive antifreeze today is compatible with aluminum.

    Should I go for red, green, yellow or blue? Does it matter? I have heard some types can damage rubber seals.
